Leonid,

Well, i think than if IPTC char encoding tag is not set, content must be interpreted like ASCII... But it just my first impression.

Else, the problem is than digiKam must respect the IPTC norm, especially when we want to update or add tags:

1/ Detect the original encoding of tags.

2/ Set the encoding tag for all others tags (UTF8 is the universal encoding. ExifTool use only this one to add/update iptc)

3/ Convert and update all existing IPTC tag to UTF8 if original encoding is different.
