#76 Encode Text Error for special language chars

[Andrea M.F.]

When I add text through the ShowText() method, Unicode characters like Polish ones cause an exception.

Example:
This Polish text = " INTERPRETACJA DOKONANA BEZ ZNANEJ PŁCI/WIEKU PACJENTA "
causes codes.GetKey(..) in Encode(string Text) to fail on 'Ł'.

  /**
      <summary>Gets the internal representation of the given text.</summary>
      <param name="text">Text to encode.</param>
    */
    public byte[] Encode(
      string text
      )
    {
      io::MemoryStream encodedStream = new io::MemoryStream();
      for(int index = 0, length = text.Length; index < length; index++)
      {
        int textCode = text[index];
        byte[] charCode = codes.GetKey(textCode).Data;
        encodedStream.Write(charCode, 0, charCode.Length);
        usedCodes.Add(textCode);
      }
      encodedStream.Close();
      return encodedStream.ToArray();
    }

Please try the latest update:

If the problem persists, please verify whether the font you are using supports Polish characters: in such a case, please send me your font file so I'm able to examine the issue.
thank you

Yes,
now it works perfectly.

Many thanks for your fast reply.
