Hello.
I'm going my first steps with mom.
There is a problem that I can't solve using the documentation, which
very well may be just silly because I don't get it (which happened
before ;)
When I enter unicode, like:
ÄÖÜ SS ÒÓÔÕŎŌ Ç äöü ß òóôõŏō ç
...and process them with pdfmom, they show up perfectly.
But if I include the same characters in a file with the .INCLUDE macro,
they disappear. Processed with -P-bcu -Tutf8, they show up
like wrong encoded strings.
Here is a minimal source code example.mom file:
---------------------------------------------\
.TITLE "unicode example"
.AUTHOR "me"
.CHAPTER 1
.DOCTYPE DEFAULT
.PRINTSTYLE TYPESET
.START
.PP
UNICODE: ÄÖÜ SS ÒÓÔÕŎŌ Ç äöü ß òóôõŏō ç
.PP
.PP
INCLUDED FILE BEGINS:
.PP
.INCLUDE file_with_identical_unicode_strings.mom
.EL
---------------------------------------------/
Command line:
groff -mom -Tutf8 -P-bcu example.mom > example.txt
Output:
---------------------------------------------\
unicode example
by
me
UNICODE: ÄÖÜ SS ÒÓÔÕŎŌ Ç äöü ß òóôõŏō ç
INCLUDED FILE BEGINS:
UNICODE: ÃÃà SS ÃÃÃÃÅŠà äöü à òóôõÅŠç
---------------------------------------------/
As I said, processing to pdf with
pdfmom -c example.mom > example.pdf
is similiar, only that the not recognized chars in the includefile just don't
show up.
What am I doing wrong?
TIA,
Erich
PS
I tried, in vain, the following pipe:
soelim example.mom | preconv -eutf8 | groff -mom -Tutf8 -P-bcu > example.txt
