Summary0009207: wrong encoding in the about dialog
DescriptionLIVINE Christin reported:



Tested with scribus 1.3.7 on Windows 7 64 bits french.

In Help ? About Scribus, the name of authors and translators are not correctly displayed. for example : Petr VanÄ›k, Christoph Schäfer…

I found the credit files in installdir\Scribus 1.3.7\share\doc : AUTHORS for Authors tab, COPYING for Licence tab, LINKS for Online tab, TRANSLATION for Translations tab.

The format of AUTHORS and TRANSLATION files is : text, UTF-8 without BOM.
The content of those files is PARTLY (see bottom…) correct, the name of authors and translators are correctly written.

So the problem is in Help ? About Scribus. Maybe there is a problem with ANSI and UTF-8 translator.


When writing the report, I found an other problem : In AUTHORS, some parts of the file are not correctly written : Mac OS® X Aqua Port, OS/2®/eComStation™ Port, Windows® Port.

Maybe, "®" was introduced to replace "®" because of the problem of ANSI and UTF-8 translator in Help ? About Scribus.

Fixed. About dialog was working on the wrong assumption that QTextStream was using UTF-8 by default to decode text.
