Hi all,

i prepared today a figure database. Within the comment fields there are
words containeng accented letters.

<figure>
   <file></file>
   <label>Beispiel</label>
   <copyright>WE</copyright>
   <comment>Oberfläche</comment>
</figure>

When saying <\figurelibrary language="en"> at the beginning I get the given
example word as Oberfl""ache The same is valid for the language="nl". If i
use the  <\figurelibrary language="de"> then I get the example word as
Oberfl"äche.

I am puzzled ... What am I doing wrong?

For testing in your environment I attach a minimal file.

Thanks

Willi

better use entities like &auml; and \useXMLfilter[ent] (or use utf 8)
