Adnrew and Harm
Thank you for helping. It is not mandatory to use UTF-8 characters for file name, but it will be a bonus. Since file system (window 10) support utf-8 for file name, the file name with UTF-8 be pass through lilypond as in header, lyrics do. I did some test UTF-8 can also be used as variable-name as well.
Andrew: Thank you for invest time to look into this UTF-8 behavior in filename.
Harm: Thank you for Guile analysis. Hope this will be resolved soon - a bonus for UTF-8 user.
Immanuel,
Ming.

Hi Ming,
Indeed yes that fails, using a filename with Chinese characters. As as aside, I myself have been learning to read and write and speak Chinese for a long time. However, I have never had the need to do it in Lilypond. I am not sure that lilypond has focused on Chinese character support very much - but I am not sure. Lilypond does of course support UTF-8, so there is something fishy going on.
I'll have a look more deeply into this for you. In the meantime, as Anglocentric as it may be, can you work with English filenames?
