Re: Possibly tricky - apostrophes and quote marks turning into black diamonds We spent a lot of time looking at this problem.. Mostly, we looked at this event as an example: LSU Men‘s Glee and Women‘s Chorale That is pasted right from the Google iCalendar export. We tried numerous methods of reading the raw calendar file as UTF-8, yet that character never displayed correctly. Further investigation showed that Google may have a problem encoding their iCal export as UTF-8. And in another strange test, we created a Google calendar, added the curved apostrophe along with some other special characters, exported that, and all of those special characters came across as garbage. Which really makes the whole situation really frustrating, since we can't tell what Google is actually doing (nor can we see your Google calendar specifically). Can I ask if you have set any special language on your calendar? How is the curved quote being entered? It's not on a standard PC keyboard. Are these events possibly being pasted in from some other application? ---------------------------------------- Marc Higgins Support Associate, localendar.com Follow us on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/localendar_news |
