I have set my SM 1.1.18 (Mac) preferences to only display fonts in
character encoding Unicode (UTF-8).
Instead, it still insists on frequently moving over to Western
(ISO-8859-1), which doesn’t handle punctuation correctly.
Does anyone know why the user settings are ignored?
I‘ve tried restarting, rebooting, etc. Doesn’t seem to help.
SeaMonkey doesn't display fonts in a character encoding. It decodes
a text determined to use certain encoding, then finds appropriate
fonts to display the characters.
What preference you've actually set (where's it located)?
If a web page or mail/news message explicitly states the encoding of
its body then SeaMonkey will always use that, initially, and even if
you override it for a preview, next time it is opened it will revert
to the page/message specified one. It is quite possible the
page/message specified encoding is given wrong.
If no encoding info is supplied, SeaMonkey will try to guess the
encoding depending on the View -> Character Encoding -> Auto-Detect
selection and the Edit -> Preferences: Mail & Newsgroups / Character
Encoding for mail/news messages (and Server Settings: Default
Character Encoding for specific accounts).
