Hi Tobi, I am creating a map from Japan with Kanji Characters in this way, and it works on a Oregon300: $JAVA -Xmx4096m -ea -jar $BASE/$MKGMAP --keep-going --family-id=42 --style-file=$BASE/teddy --merge-lines --generate-sea=multipolygon,extend-sea-sectors,close-gaps=6000 --add-pois-to-areas --remove-short-arcs --location-autofill=is_in,nearest --country-name=Japan --country-abbr=JP --family-name="OSM Japan" --description="Japan - `date +%F.%k`" --area-name=Japan --code-page=932 --net --route --index --name-tag-list='name,name:en,name:latin' $BASE/japan/*.osm.gz $BASE/teddy.TYP On 10/09/12 22:47, Tobi wrote:

hi, i tried maps of taiwan with codepage 950 and 936 but they dont show any chinese charaters (just nothing instead) on the garmin. the english names in braces are ok. the maps work like expected in qlandkartegt. i also tried to build a map of japan with codepage 932. the map shows no characters at all and glandkartegt segfaults when i try to open it :-( here are my options: java -ea -Xmx8096m -jar /work/src/mkgmap_all/trunk/dist/mkgmap.jar --max-jobs=3 --keep-going --index --route --description=$(NAME) --country-name=$(NAME) --country-abbr=$(ABBR) --region-name=$(NAME) --region-abbr=$(ABBR) --overview-mapname=$(NAME)_Overview --overview-mapnumber=0$(F_ID)0000 --code-page=$(CODEPAGE) --lower-case --family-id=$(F_ID) --product-id=$(F_ID) --series-name=$(NAME) --family-name=$(NAME) --area-name=$(NAME) --draw-priority=10 --style-file=../share/mkgmap_styles/style_tobi --generate-sea=multipolygon,extend-sea-sectors,close-gaps=6000,floodblocker --add-pois-to-areas --remove-short-arcs $(MKGOPTS) --gmapsupp splits/*.osm.gz $(TYP) tobi On 10/10/2012 08:08 AM, Carsten Schwede wrote:
