Hi, I've got a problem with character rendering. I'm loading some text via Retrofit, which contains html-escaped umlauts (charset is ISO-8859-1). Locally I replace these with

Html.fromHtml()

, but instead of showing their corresponding umlauts, I just get these question mark diamonds, as shown in the picture. I assume this is a charset problem, but I couldn't find any information on how to set a specific one in compose.

Don't think this is an compose issue. Maybe you need to decode your input data using the ISO encoding.

You're right, it's not a compose issue. As it turns out, I'm a bit of an idiot, because it was in fact the unencoded umlauts which caused troubles here, I mixed them up when analyzing the logs. I asked my backend dev to html escape all text, which I'm decoding locally with

Html.fromHtml()

. Thanks Timo.
