Hi,

I'm trying to use TTF fonts with Platypus where I found a little
surprise: I can see accented characters after converting my text
input to UTF-8, but these are prefixed by the logical NOT charac-
ter. See attached PDF sample and generator file. Can anybody ex-
plain this, or, even better, suggest how to get rid of them?

Thanks,

Dinu
