Problem with ISO8859-15

If you go to screen-scraper > options > settings, you'll see a pulldown there for 'default font'. The list is populated by your system's fonts, but many of them do not have all of the Unicode characters.
If you have screen-scraper set to use a font, and that font does not contain a character you need, you'll see this problem.

Have you checked the steps on the FAQ?

You also need an appropriate
You also need an appropriate font set. If you don't have that, you may be able to get the right characters, but they just don't show up right in the GUI.
