The label generator appears to have character-set limitations.  It may work fine for a given set of data and drop errors on another.  To me it looks like we haven't found a truly UTF-8 compatible perl module for generating PDFs.  I suspect such a thing may not yet exist.

Hiya Bernard,

The good news is - this *does* work for me (on the latest stable build)


I suspect you have some config-settings (?missing values perhaps?)
that are causing it to barf (which is a legitimate bug)

Open up a bug for this, and we can compare our settings and get it
working for you.

Mason.
