Re: Questionmarks instead of umlauts in JPEG serialized SVGs ?

[Joerg Heinicke]

If you do this direct mapping from request param to stylesheet param, 
the request character encoding must be the same as the stylesheet 
encoding if I remember correctly. We had the same problem 1,5 years ago 
when generating images dynamically. At the end we circumvent it by using 
i18n, where only the key is given in the URL of the image. This key 
never contains any umlaut, because it is simply the english word.

What can you do:

1) Change the encoding of the stylesheet to the request encoding, so 
that the sitemap param is passed in the correct encoding.

2) Use only characters from the US ASCII char set (first 2^7 characters) 
as key and use i18n transformer for translating them. This allows also 
later internationalization (this is why it's called i18n transformer :).

Encoding is ok ... and I tracked the Problem back to some Sitemap-Problems
Here is the Part of my sitemap:
  <map:match pattern="images/ueberschrift/*.jpg">
   <map:generate src="stylesheets/dummy.xml"/>
   <map:transform src="stylesheets/Ueberschrift.xsl">
       <map:parameter name="label" value="{1}"/>
   </map:transform>
   <map:serialize/>
</map:match>
It seems that the parameter "label" doesn't arive at the stylesheet with 
the correct encoding.
Can I set cocoons internal format to iso-8859-1 ?

is the encoding on your xml document correctly set? ie ISO8859-1 or 
UTF-8?
Add debugging views to your pipeline to see at which stage exactly it 
loses your umlauts

Hi,

I am having some strange problems with the svg-to-jpeg serialisation in
combination with german umlauts. I am using cocoon to dynamically
generate images according to the url of the immage. If I embed an image
"/images/Title.jpg" a jpeg containing the text "Title" is created. My
problem now is, that if I link "/images/%FCberschrift.jpeg", which is
URL-Encoded "�berschrift", I get the correct image, but at the position
where the umlaut is, there is a black diamond with a white question mark
inside. I have tried several things, but I couldn't get this to work.
Hans anyone here got an idea?

Thanx in advance,
