Hi Didi!

Unicode or (only) german umlauts... anyway... with the utf-convertion
you'll get it to work if there are umlauts. I had the same problem.
I've done it like this:
// . . .
function DoAnything(const FName: PChar): LongInt; stdcall;
// . . .
       fexist := QP.LoadFromFile(FName);
       if ( fexist = 0 ) then
          begin
             fexist := QP.LoadFromFile(Pchar( AnsiToUtf8(FName) ));
// . . .

Cheers, Ingo

But the problem isn't 8 or 16 Bit, it's 7 or 8 Bit. In non-english ,European languages characters in filenames like Ä,Ö,Ü and so on, are as usual as  A,E,O.
That's  ASCII, no Unicode.

Hi Didi!

In Delphi 7 I could get around this issue using:

PDFLoadFromFile(0, Pchar( AnsiToUtf8(FileName) ));

Hi Didi!

Yes... for me, too.
I've never had such case 'cause really unusual using umlauts.
You should post on the official support-pages ... not here 'cause here're only users.

Cheers, Ingo

It seems to  me, QuickPDF can't open files with german Umlaut, like "zubehör.pdf".
Does anyone know about that topic?
