hi, the easiest way is to encode your file as UTF-8 (most text editors support that). that is the default encoding for svg (and the default ASV expects). therein, just type your 'äöüß', they are available.
there are other ways (hex-encoding) but UTF-8 is by far the easiest way to go. andré -- ___________________________________________________________________ andre m. winter, cartography for internet and multimedia applications a6091 goetzens, tyrol, austria tel.: ++43.5234.32732 email: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://www.vectoreal.com/> SVG consulting and development <http://www.carto.net/> online cartography focusing on SVG <http://www.carto.at/> print and online touristic map solutions tamsvg wrote: >Hi! > >I want to create a text, and in it there's the german letter 'ä' >('ae').
