Opening PDF files with Unicode characters in filename

The following file can only be opened if the è in the filename is changed to e :
Modèle de test.pdf
(23.93 KiB) Downloaded 116 times
The file opens normally in other software (Adobe Reader, NitroPro 8 and IrfanView...)

The file can be opened in XnViewMP (0.69 64-bit gs9.10 64-bit) if it is renamed 'Modele de test' ...

Possibly a known Ghostscript issue when using Unicode characters with Windows, possibly resolved with alternative coding??

From the SO.com question which you linked I think that's pretty clear what needs fixing...

@cday: Could you please try and see whether the problem still exists in current XnView MP 0.84?
