We use Wix 3.0. The problem is, some Spanish characters don't show correctly. "instalación" shows as "instalaci?n".
Some background: ================ Our product requirement asks us to support "multiple language MSI" which isn't supported officially by MSI. Someone posted some trick(http://jpassing.wordpress.com/2007/06/14/authoring-multi-language-msi-packages/ ) about how to get it work. I'd been through the whole way, figured out the MST, transform, stuff the language in MSI etc. Anyways, I got it work finally. We have a bootstrapper. The bootstrapper will show a drop-down list of languages. The end user will select the language she prefers. And then the bootstrapper will tell MSI which language it should use. The whole thing works fine until yesterday. As you know, there is no enough language files in Wix 3.0. So I get most of the language files from Wix 2.0. The problem: ============ Some strings don't display correctly in Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. For example: the string "WelcomeDlgTitle". The en-US one is like this "<String Id="WelcomeDlgTitle">{\WixUI_Font_Bigger}Welcome to the [ProductName] Setup Wizard</String>". The Spanish one is "<String Id="WelcomeDlgTitle">{\WixUI_Font_Bigger}Asistente para la instalación de [ProductName]</String>" But when we run installer, we see "Asistente para la instalaci?n de MyApp". See the character "ó" shows as "?n"? Since this is the first page of the installer, so our team think this is a P1 bug. Is this because I'm using the Wix 2.0 language file in Wix 3.0? But I don't really have Wix 3.0 language files. By the way, we have another product which uses Wix 2.0. And that product uses the same language trick I'm using. But it doesn't have this problem. It shows "Asistente para la instalación de [ProductName]" correctly. I'm looking forward your kindly response.
