I just compiled TeXnicCenter 2 Unicode and tried to save a tex-file in UTF-8. This works fine and I can make a PDF-file with xetex. But I cannot make a PDF-file using pdflatex. After some investigations, I found out, that pdflatex seems not to be able to parse tex-files that start with a BOM.
As a temporary workaround, I changed CodeDocument.cpp (see attachment), but this is not a solution, you should add a feature to save a file as UTF-8 without BOM.
I know, if there are no special characters, TeXnicCenter will recognize such a document as ANSI, but this should not be a big problem, one can use a speacial character in a comment.
