ImageMagick and non iso characters

[rodrigo]

After upgrading ImageMagick to 6.5.3-10, I start having issues with Latin2 (ISO-8859-2) characters : they are skipped.
A command like

convert -size 900x100 xc:black -draw 'encoding "Latin 2" font-size 40 fill white gravity Center text 0,0 "Béioàéà"' /tmp/font.png

Just prints a single "B". Any idea ?





here some informations about the IM configutarion :

%identify -list configure

After several tries, i solve the solution converting strings into UTF8. If you uses perlmagick (Image Magick extension for perl) do something like :

use Encode 'decode';
$texte=decode("iso-8859-3","àéç");
$image->Annotate(pointsize=>12, fill=>'black', text=>$texte,X=>'1',Y=>'15');

to have a sooth rendering
