Hello,

We are having difficulty with our app displaying Korean characters.
We have followed the directions given here to others:

http://www.ultimatepp.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&goto=43 537&

We did a copy/paste of the Korean text into t file using Theide editor.
Initially, it looks like squares before Upp compilation.
The build succeeds and Upp changes the text in the t file to hex numbers.
However, these don't render as Korean text in the application but continue to look like squares.
A screen image is captured as an example.
It is attached along with the t file for this project in tar.gz format.

The t file line numbers of the four text in buttons are
line #7773, #7787, #7419, and #7808.

We used Google translate to go from English --> Korean.
For example: "Update vT Software" gets translated to "업데이트 VT 소프트웨어"

It is those Korean characters that we copy/paste into Theide for further conversion to the hex number sequences.
However, all we get from Upp rendering in our application is square boxes.

T file encodings and font in Upp are default utf8 and Monospace.

P.S. Copy/paste of the same Google translated Korean text into Leafpad editor renders proper Korean text, and not squares.

Additional Context:
- Host: is Linux Mint 17.2 on Intel architecture
- Upp: we are using upp-x11-src-8760 snap-shot

Any suggestion regarding this is very much appreciated.
