Hi.
I set the Encoding of my reportwriter, but I don't think it sends this
encoding to reportlab (at least not in all cases). Several of the
reportlab functions has an encoding parameter, and this is default to
"utf8".
Here stringWidth is called (does not accept encoding), this in turn
calls _py_stringWidth from pdfmetrics.py, and this always defaults to
'utf8'.
I can fix this by changing 'utf8' to 'latin1' everywhere, but I really
don't feel like it. Does anyone have a solution for this?
