I think that the FT810-3 only handle ASCII.

i have replace unused characters in the ttf-font with ttf-editor (birdfont)
as a quick solution

for example

# --> ä
$ --> ö
& --> ü

the use looks funny but works

GD.cmd_text(GD.w/2, GD.h/2, MR40_HANDLE, OPT_CENTERX, "Z&ndung");

Hi Rayman,

Could you explain how you got MR40_HANDLE? Did you convert a bitmap with the gd2asset tool with .ttf and then just LOAD_ASSETS?

Thanks
