good quetion, try and let us know, we created bluevoda for the english speaking market, but it supports most latin characters.

Sometimes it helps to exclusively specify the character set you are using.
Copy this code into the page html (between head tag):

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">

or if that doesn't work try this:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">

Pls let me know when it would work with french characters.
best regards,
Edith

Maybe you should select another font?
I've tested it here in several languages (Dutch, German, French) and did not have any problems.
