[Lcms-user] Getting the correct unicode name from a v2 profile

[Lee B. <le...@bo...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to get a correctly encoded unicode name from an ICC v2 profile.

The name as displayed in ColorSync Utility is correct - Japan Color コート紙

(Using the LCMS2MBS plugin)

      n= p.ReadTag(LCMS2MBS.kcmsSigProfileDescriptionTag)

either
      se = n.getUnicode("en", n.kNoCountry)
or
      st = n.getUnicode("", n.kNoCountry)

I need a UTF8 encoded string from the description.

I've also tried using a LCMS1 description tag but that is wrong too.

What encoding does the Unicode descriptions have?
