Error when using greek characters #35

Closed Anarxus-LT closed 2 years ago

Anarxus-LT commented 2 years ago

When I use Greek characters i get the following error when I try to generate the gcode, if I remove the Greek characters it saves normally.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\LT\AppData\Roaming\inkscape\extensions\mobi.omegacentauri.cookiecutter\gcodeplot.py", line 1073, in <module> data = f.read() File "C:\Program Files\Inkscape\lib\python3.9\encodings\cp1252.py", line 23, in decode return codecs.charmap_decode(input,self.errors,decoding_table)[0] UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 1640: character maps to <undefined>

You should convert text to strokes beforehand.

I was doing object to path, i just tried stroke to path like you recommended and it works.

By the way thanks for the project, i use it to cut vinyl on the ender 3 and works great !
