Hi Darek, When mkgmap reads the command file (like template.args) it expects utf-8. I think Garmin only uses latin-1 characters in the fields for description, map name etc, but I am not sure about this. Did you already try it?

In which code page should be this file (utf-8,1250) and which parameter "code-page" ? Best Regards Darek
