Re: 2.20 fails when filename has non-ASCII characters

[John Helly]

    Yes.  I find that to be true.  I suspect that it has to do with the
    installed fonts.  I remember trying to use a French keyboard at the
    Ecole Normal in Lyon and suppose that the font implementation is
    assumed in the applications.  This incompatibility seems to be at
    the ghostscript level as that seems to be throwinng the error.

And the files work if you change the filename to ASCII?
Seems strange to me (that was my file).

I don't know if this is a known issue, or if anyone cares because it's
version 2.20, but it will get a fatal error if the filename contains
non-ASCII characters.  It is not a problem in 2.22 or 2.23.  I believe
I saw a thread where this error popped up, but I can't find it.

I've attached the most minimal of MWEs to this email.  You have to
save the file with the filename unchanged.  If you try to compile it,
the output is:
