I try to use verityplus11 instead of verity; But it doesn't seem work. see code below :

<canvas height="300" width="500">
<font src="verity/verityplus9.ttf" name="verity"/>
<window font="verity" fontsize="11" x="20" y="20" width="200" height="250"
title="Accès application" >

</canvas>

is it necessary to declare the european charset like iso-8859-1 ?

Thank

Assuming that character is defined in the font (I don't know if it is), you may need to use an XML/HTML style entity escape,
like

è è --> è &egrave; --> è

&#dddd; will display character code dddd (decimal).

But you should be able to use Unicode (uTF8) to author your source code, and then just use accent chars with your text editor.

The default encoding for XML is UTF8, and the Laszlo compiler will assume you are using UTF8 in your source files unless you specify differently via the "encoding" attribute in the XML declaration

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF8"?>

Most modern text editors let you write out your file in UTF-8 encoding.
