Problem with fonts - doestergaard - 2011-08-13

Seems that I can't fix this issue by my self, my problem is, that I use a font which supports these 3 symbols: ÆÅØ - both uppercase and lowercase. But when i use uppercase to display a text in my skin, these symbols are forced to lowercase?

This is also a problem with symbols like:

áÁóÓöÖ

I have checked that the fonts I use, supports all symbols in both lowercase and uppercase.

My code in Font.xml looks like this:

Code:
<fonts>

    <fontset id="default" unicode="true">

        <font>

            <name>12</name>

            <filename>regular.ttf</filename>

            <aspect>1.0</aspect>

            <size>12</size>

        </font>

         </fontset>

</fonts>

There is several more, but they look like the same.
I appreciate any help,
thanks!

Your only option in the meantime is to do an uppercase only version of the font.

Okay, thanks! So other skinners have done the same? Cause it ain't a problem with skins like Xperience, Xeebo an so on.

If it's not a list item you can uppercase it in your strings.xml.
