RE: [Digital BW] QTR or QTRgui doesn't like international characters

2004-10-16 by Stephen Billard

I checked this out. QTRgui passes the correct file name on in its batch
file. However, when QuadToneRIP displays the name in its log, the name has
changed. I used the "æ" character. It changed into "µ". I am not familiar
enough with extended character sets to speculate why it would change like
that.

Anyway, needless to say, QuadToneRIP could not open the image since it had
the wrong name.
