Good thought -- and actually the document builds OK with utf-8 specified. The only problem is that section titles with 8-bit characters are broken when viewed on Windows :-(

I'm surprised if that wasn't fixable by setting up something on your
windows box. IE and windows generally (post 9x) has fairly good unicode
and utf encoding handling. MS help uses IE components for rendering,
presumably.

Not on plain text files. I would say, it is not that MS components can't handle them, but text files lack the indication of the encoding. Except for the BOM, sometimes...


Grtz,
Geert
