UTF-8 characters not showing correctly

[nurettin]

Using JRuby 1.7.2 (1.9.3 compatibility)

#encoding: UTF-8 
require 'rghost'
require 'rghost_barcode'
require 'iconv'
RGhost::Config::GS[:path]= "/usr/bin/gs"
RGhost::Config::GS[:charset_convert]= nil
wtf= "İ"
p "#{wtf} encoding: #{wtf.encoding}"
RGhost::Document.new do |doc|
  doc.show wtf
  File.write("test.ps", doc.render_stream(:ps))
end

This shows

But I want it to show İ

I tried:

• setting external_encoding to UTF-8, (no change)
• charset_convert Iconv::conv('UTF-8', 'US-ASCII') ( Iconv::IllegalSequence: İ )
• setting font_encoding to :utf8 (no change)

What can I do to show UTF-8 characters in rghost ?

Same thing happens with

doc.render :ps, filename: "test.ps"

Have you ever tried encode_test to figure out what is the properly encoding for you?
