[reportlab-users] Unicode character Eclipse IDE vs. MS VisualStudio 2012

Hi,

I have a problem with unicode charcters writing in a table (see
minimalistic example):

Running the script in Eclipse, everything works fine. But in MS VS2012 I
get an exception (System.Text.DecoderFallbackException, Message=Unable to
translate bytes [C3] at index 0 from specified code page to Unicode.).


min. example begin

# -*- coding: latin-1 -*-

from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
from reportlab.platypus import Table

str = [['ü']]
myCanvas = canvas.Canvas("test.pdf")
tableData = Table(str)
tableData.wrapOn(myCanvas, 0, 0)
tableData.drawOn(myCanvas, 0, 0)

myCanvas.getpdfdata()

print 'done'

min. example end


I'm using IronPython 2.7.2 and ReportLab 2.5

Does anyone have an idea?


Thx, Tom
