[TYPO3] GIFBUILDER and Czech characters (ISO backend!)

[Albert van der Veen]

Hi Masi,

At the moment it seems that no conversion is taking place at all. The 
characters that are displayed are the corresponding characters from 
iso-8859-1 instead of ISO-8859-2. I assumed that setting the rendercharset 
would force a mapping of iso codes to the corresponding utf-8 (which are in 
the font). So for instance the Czech charactercode #F8 (248) would map to 
#0159 (latin small letter r with caron). Instead the character ø is 
displayed which is the iso-8859-1 character with code #F8. Am I making a 
wrong assumption regarding conversion of charsets?

Albert
