Actually when tasks names have accented characteds, they get well displayed on
html reports, but badly displayed in eps fogures generated with tjx2gantt.
I did a quick comparison between the postscript code generated by tjx2gantt
and a single line of text turned to ps using a2ps, and strangely enough, the
characters seem to be written the same way (e.g. \350 or \351). There are
differences in the way Latin1 fonts are defined (or "Reencoded", or
whatever). Thus it seems to be more related to Postscript::Simple than to
tjx2gantt itself, though I couldn't tell much more as I'm not familiar with
this stuff :-(

Oh, okay ; so perhaps you could correct the related documentation page
(http://www.taskjuggler.org/manual/property_macro.html) on which the given
example shows a ';' ? At least it was misleading to me...
Cheers,
