   Thanks!For future users, here is the actual code, that works:In C++:
		char *fname = "C:\\Temp\\Digi drop\\ùéèçà123\\pages.pdf";
		const int SIZE = 1024; // Bytes
                char* text = new char[SIZE];
                WCHAR w[SIZE]={0};

		int erg=MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, fname, -1, w, SIZE); // ANSI to UNICODE
		erg=WideCharToMultiByte(CP_UTF8, 0, w, -1, text, SIZE, 0, 0); // UNICODE to UTF-8 
		int hndFile = _QuickPDFDAOpenFile (InstanceID, text, NULL);
		if (hndFile != 0)
		{
			int x = 1;
		}
In Java 6 - How to get the same UFT-8 path:
	public String getAsString (String result)  
        { 
		byte[] bt = result.getBytes(); 
		ByteArrayOutputStream sw = new ByteArrayOutputStream (bt.length);
                OutputStreamWriter osw;
		try {
			osw = new OutputStreamWriter (sw, "UTF8");
	        BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter (osw); 
	        out.write(result ); 
	        out.close(); 
		} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
			e.printStackTrace();
		} catch (IOException e) {
			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
			e.printStackTrace();
		} 
        return sw.toString(); 
    }

	Hi Ilana! Wheeley already told you what to do ... Try things like this: QP.LoadFromFile(Pchar( AnsiToUtf8(c:\\drop\\Ã¹Ã©Ã¨Ã§Ã 1232\\pages.pdf) )) QP.LoadFromFile(UTF8Encode('c:\\drop\\Ã¹Ã©Ã¨Ã§Ã 1232\\pages.pdf') ...and don't forget Wheeley's ideas 2 and 3 ;-) Cheers and welcome here, Ingo

	I am using UTF-8 characters which has their value is bigger then 127. For example one of the characters has the Ansi value of 199 and 200. Can you please advice? Thanks, Ilana.

	I can think of 3 ideas. 1. Make sure you send the file name as a UTF8 encoded string to the 7.23 DLL. 2. Try the 7.26 DLL with UTF8 encoding as well 3. Upgrade to version 8 with full unicode support Wheeley

	Hi, When trying to open a pdf file in a directory that has German characters, the returned handle is 0. Which means that the file could not be opened. The command DAOpenFile when the file is: "c:\\drop\\ùéèçà1232\\pages.pdf". Any solution for that? I am using "QuickPDFDLL0723.dll". Thanks, Ilana.
