AFAICT the newer versions of frescobaldi, eg 2.18.1 in Debian's stretch, use python3, and that should handle UTF8 natively. The older version in Debian's stable (jessie) is 2.0.13 which uses python2, and so UTF has to be handled with extra code (easy, but necessary). But it's odd that particular characters should troublesome but not others. LilyPond itself probably cares little about the filename it's given because all it has to do with it is reflect it on the console. I've tested the jessie version (2.18.2) with filenames consisting of SPACE, NBSP, strings like ¶‱™ ⇈☂✂♠♫ (which has a NBSP in the middle) and also your title and poet thus: lilypond 雨打芭蕉xxx禱願 lilypond 禱願xxx雨打芭蕉 I don't know what platform you're running this on. If it's MS, it could be their use of UTF16 that's causing a problem. Attached are the files for a run based on your troublesome character (if I captured the correct one): 禱 source file lilyerr console output lilyout output from displayLilyMusic 禱.pdf output file Because my xterms have limited fonts available, there's also a screenshot of these files altogether in emacs. Cheers, David.
