just noticed when using the uniencode/unidecode method (as was described
in revdataFromQuery and umlauts etc. thread some time ago) to diplay
data loaded from sqlite database in compiled application (Windows, Rev
2.9) some unicode Eastern European fonts turn into black sticks. In
development environment everything works and fonts are rendered
correctly. Fonts are included during compilation and revfont.dll is
present in externals folder. What else is there to check for ? Or is
this a failure of revFont external and it is time to visit the QC?
Best wishes

You are probably dealing with encoding issues. Maybe the data is
stored as UTF8? In that case you would have to do the following:
put uniencode(tVID, "UTF8") into tVID -- change to UTF16 which Rev
undestands.
put unidecode(tVID) into tVID -- Now it is in a format specific to
platform.
I store all unformatted text in SQLite as UTF8 and run it through
similar functions.
Bingo! Presumably SQLite Browser and the SQLite command tool are both
doing this step automatically.
Thanks Trevor!
