Hi Mark,
I've been reading more about the ISO 2022 specification that is used
in IPTC, and there are a couple of things I'm thinking about changing.
The first issue won't affect you because you're not writing IPTC, but the
second may help if you have translation problems with images where
CodedCharacterSet has been set to an unrecognized value.
1) I think I'll change the default behaviour of setting
CodedCharacterSet to UTF8 when creating a new IPTC record
because it seems there isn't good support for this in other
applications.
2) I may try applying the Latin conversion even for unrecognized
CodedCharacterSets provided no alternate ISO 2022 character
sets have been invoked in the text.
