It is a patch.  Either you edit the files listed and those lines directly,
or you apply the patch-file with the unix "patch" command.

If you can't do either of these, then it is probably better you don't make
the change. Particularily since it is unsupported by the main weberp release
and will require you to manage it.

Also note the charset of a database is set when the tables are created.  You
can convert from latin1 to SJSIS or whatever, or you can create a new
database with whatever charset you desire.

I'm not 100% sure a mysql database with one charset (say iso88591) can
handle another charset (say utf8).

In fact this is one area I feel weberp is completely broken and totally
ignores.  The size of a PDF is meanless when faced with potential
data-corruption though mis-match of charsets. While weberp has
multi-languages it can not handle multi-charsets.
