[sword-devel] Rendering issues with Finnish Umlauts in FinPR

[Tobias Klein]

Hi Kristof, David,

Adding Encoding=UTF-8 to the module conf file ~/.sword/mods.d/finpr.conf 
does not solve my issue.

The text still looks the same as before ...

What else could I do to further debug this?

Best regards,
Tobias
