No, I was just eliminating possibilities.

If the problem were related to the font, one would rather expect to see squares or question marks or empty spaces.

How can this explain that anacreon (Aura HD, FW ?), davidfor (Glo, FW 3.1.0) and I (Touch, FW 2.6.1) see the correctly interpreted characters, whereras fxp33 (Glo, FW ?) and I (Touch, FW 3.0.1) see the underlying UTF-8 code. As an additional information: fxp33's test file contains also a Chinese character that cannot be produced by combining characters.

I myself don't have any clue what might prevent the utf8 decoding on fxp33's and my reader.Maybe it is a side-effect of some entry in the configuration file?
It didn't work on my Touch with FW 3.0.1. So, I installed 3.1.0. It worked. That probably means a bug in the display code in 3.0.1 that was fixed in 3.1.0.
