Dotan,

With the image from #13 all char are broken. Sure this one is certainly encoded using UTF-8... but the "envelope" IPTC tag is not set. There is no way to find witch encoding is used in IPTC to decode text from this picture. 

I have tried to show all IPTC informations from this picture using Photoshop 7.x, and all text strings are broken like digiKam !

If you read the IPTC Spec. this "Envelope" IPTC tag must be set properlly, else all text tags are unsuitable. I suspect a bug in BrillantPhoto.

Gilles
