Steve,
that sounds like a plan... ;-)
Regarding lower-case option again:
I found old screenprints from one of my devices from early last year,
showing all capital letters for streetnames and similar... sometime last
year it seems to have changed. Newer screenprints from the device always
show proper case....
I can't check how it was in earlier days regarding license and copyright
information.... no real old files around anymore.... constantly running
out of space here... ;-)
I guess it's fine to have it in 'proper' case as written in the files
inside the license and copyright information, looks nicer. And the
actual devices (what I could test) do definitely support it.
And I definitely prefer to unset the 'lower-case' option again if all
runs fine without it.
Thanks
Patrik

-> Can you tell me what characters you do see instead?
For unicode map option copyright-file I see characters that look like
black diamonds with a question mark in it (picture attached, hope it
comes through).
OK thanks that helps I will post something to try later.
-> lower-case option
I've double checked with older maps I was definitely building without
the --lower-case option and the map always showed proper case (capital
and lower case) names, preserving OSM style on my Garmin devices (at
least for the last few months... didn't/couldn't check back more).
Looking in BaseCamp at the license/copyright information I can say that
we had part in capitals and part in mixed cases, assuming that
copyright-message (I was using the message, not the copyright-file
option earlier) was in capital letters only.
The license-file part was before always in mixed cases as it should be.
And to make the statment complete: the codepage option was always used
and set.
In MapSource etc it will display in upper and lower case even though
the label in the map is all in uppercase. It just capitalises the
first letter of each work and lower cases the rest. So "OSM Road"
would be stored as "OSM ROAD" and displayed as "Osm Road".
All I can do is control what is actually put into the map, how any
particular device displays it is up to the device.
..Steve
