You're right but I think there is no intention of interpreting the result as UTF-8. "f62026" is just to be used as "f62026", which can be converted byte-by-byte back to "ö…". That's how understand the requirement anyway.Ali
That is not possible, because you cannot know whether "f620" and "26" or "f6" and "2026" (or any other combination) should form a code point each. Additional padding to constant width (8 hex chars) is needed.
