Hi all,

rendering a text with Asciidoctor, I alway get this error - only when using german sepcial characters (äöüßÄÜÖ).
If I don't use german special characters (or html-entities), all works fine.
Windows 7 / 64-Bit

CompatibilityError: incompatible character encodings: CP850 and UTF-8

On rendering with asciidoc - all works fine.

Any Ideas?

thanks, Manfred
