Broken encoding in job name

Situation

Job title is not shown correctly in the Dispatcher Paragon management interface (the encoding is wrong).

Possible cause

User creates a job with the name encoding different from the current system locale default and sends it to the Dispatcher Paragon. The job title is shown incorrectly in the Dispatcher Paragon management interface.

Example

A Russian user has his/her Windows operating system in English locale and prints a document in Russian (including the document's name). The default encoding in English Windows is unable to process azbuka letters, which causes the job title to be shown in a wrong way.

Solution

To have the job's name shown properly, the user has to change his/her system's locale. There is currently no other solution for jobs whose title encoding is incompatible with the system's one.

How to change Windows locale
