5 Accentued chars problem... - ID: 833820

Last Update: Comment added ( davelopper )

Details:

Accentued characters support doesn't work.

JFOR does not handsomely handle accentued characters
such as
the french e acute or grave and so on...
This is because JFOR in the class RtfStringConverter
assumes that
all Unicode chars from 0 to 255 can be translated to
ansi 0-255.
This is false ASCII/ANSI charsets support characters
ranging from 0
to 127. So the characters over 127 have to be escaped
to unicode.
( As they are depending on the language chosen for the
system...)

Please find an appropriate patch attached.

Regards,
Lucas Bruand

Note to WebObjects developers who use that lib to generate RTF from a WO template: ensure that your component generating the RTF generates a UTF8 response, that your .html file is in UTF8, and that the <?xml encoding?> (in the .html file) is set to UTF8.
