I'm using ruby, prawn, and prawnto to dynamically generate pdf's containing text in other languages. I can't seem to get any text in languages with non-english characters to show up. It doesn't throw any errors...just shows a bunch of dashes instead of characters. Prawn brags on its homepage about UTF-8 support so I don't see why this is...
In my current implementation of a UISearchBarController I'm using [NSString compare:] inside the filterContentForSearchText:scope: delegate method to return relevant objects based on their name property to the results UITableView as you start typing. So far this works great in English and Korean, but what I'd like to be able to do is se...

I'm trying to view a UTF-8 text file/stream in less, and even if I invoke it like this: cat file | LESSCHARSET=utf-8 less the non-ASCII compatible UTF-8 characters don't display correctly. Instead, their hex values appear highlighted in brackets, e.g. <F4>. The reading the same text in vim with UTF-8 encoding poses no problems. So I'...
I would like to change string encoding from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-2 in Javascript. How can I do it? I need it because I've designed a widget. User just copies < script > tag from my site and puts it on his. This script creates div and puts into div widget contents with text. If target website is in UTF-8 encoding - it works fine. But when ...
In an objective-c/cocoa app, I am using c functions to open a text file, read it line-by-line and use some lines in a third-party function. In psuedo-code: char *line = fgets(aFile); library_function(line); // This function calls for a utf-8 encoded char * string This works fine until the input file contains special characters (such ...

The query on the URL shows the same like I type in by myself, but in this case (typing) I get results. How can it happen that I see the same URL on my IE and get the results and the other (that come...
The history of Encoding Schemes / multiple Operating Systems and Endian-nes have led to a mess in terms of encoding all forms of string data (--i.e., all alphabets); for this reason protocol buffers only deals with ASCII or UTF-8 in its string types, and I can't see any polymorphic overloads that accept the C++ wstring. The question then...

This is the same problem as mine: ...
