Well, I've made some changes to the code since I started urlEncoding the
text before merging so I'll check that again. Paul is right that unicode in
htmltext needs to be in hex, but the numbers I'm getting back are very high
(8,000+) and render in the field as strange pictographs. Elsewhere wher
I think you are trying to think too much about the LC implementation of text.
Maybe.
Text in LC is an abstraction of a sequence of code points. Whether it is UTF16
or not is hidden to me. (mostly)
So,
get textDecode( binaryFromServer, "UTF-8" )
should put that into the correct form, if i
Doesn't any Unicode in htmlText of a field need to be in HTML form (i.e.
#;?
I thought htmlText turns any non ASCII into either hex encoded html or,
where html entity names exists, uses html entity names.

It's UTF8 text from a server, which I textDecode to UTF16. When I use
the UTF16 text in a merge, diacriticals and/or curly quotes get mangled.
(Same with setting metadata on field text too.)

Do you mean "encoded to UTF-16"? In that case you should decode that to convert
it to internal text. And then try merge. (Which still might have problems, I
suppose.)

Thank you for your work in this.

Although i understand anyone´s concern about Apple new requirement for
notarization, i welcome Apple´s effort to make Mac OS X apps more secure for
the users. I was also not very happy when i first heard that 10.14.6 will not
start unnotarized apps right away.
But what are our options here?

Yeah i remember getting really heated when this behaviior was

I think I just used a "wait while stack is open" kind of command (with
