Wrong encoding from parameters

[Anonymous]

Hi,

if document Author or whatever global parameter contains unicode chars "ěščřžýáíé...." function 

getGlobalParameter("inventor:Author") returns mismatch string:

CPS encoding is set to setCodePage("utf-8");

Author: ěščřžýáíé

writeln(getGlobalParameter("inventor:Author"));

returns in HSM Edit "=> ۛá¡ÍÙ™þ¾ý½á¡í­é©."

if opened in utf-8 editor, because HSM Edit doesn't show UTF-8 chars  (in 2019?)

returns "Û›á¡ÍÙ™þ¾ý½á¡í­é©"

text = getGlobalParameter("inventor:Author");

for (var i = 0; i < text.length; ++i) writeln(text.charCodeAt(i));

returns "219, 155, 225, 161, 205, 141, 217, 153, 254, 190, 253, 189, 225, 161, 237, 173, 233, 169"

 Is it bug or i missed something ?

Hi, have the same problem with German umlauts (äÄöÖüÜß / codepage: 1252), I've written to this a small translation function in the post processer, to get it work.

It only affects the global parameters which start with "inventor:", the rest works as it should.
