Description:
The way in which RichMemo handles German special characters (Ä Ö Ü ä ö ü ß) is not compatible with Wordpad on Windows.
-
I created a RTF-file, which contains German special characters, with Wordpad on Windows. When I open this file with RichMemo, this characters are completely missing (not displayed).
-
I created a RTF-file, which contains German special characters, with RichMemo. When I open this file with Wordpad on Windows, every 2nd character after a German special character is missing (not displayed).
Steps to reproduce:
- Open attached file "Wordpad.rtf" (which was created by Wordpad on Windows) with RichMemo.
It looks like RichMemo_Editor.png
But it should look like Wordpad.png
- the 7 German special characters are missing completely, only the blanks between them are shown
2) Attached file "RichMemo_Umlaute.rtf" was created by RichMemo.
It looked like RichMemo_Umlaute.png
But if you open it with Wordpad on Windows it looks like RichMemo_Umlaute_Wordpad.png
- in the 3rd line the Blanks between the German special characters and the ending <"> are missing
- in the 4th line the letters between the German special characters are missing
Additional information:
I tested with r7280.
For me it would be essential, that I can use (view and edit) the same RTF-files
- on Windows 7 with Wordpad
- on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04) with RichMemo
and that they appear compatible.
