Is it somehow possible to make the ExifReader able to read out special Characters- like the german (ä, ü etc.) properly?

Tested it with exifreader v 4.5.0 on my own system and on your hosted example website

Testfile

Hi! It should already do that. The text stored in the file should use UTF-8 though, does it? When I try the test file with exiftool it also gives Dˆrr (exiftool is an awesome command line tool for reading image metadata).

Oh ok my bad then. Maybe its already wrong in the file then. Should have checked that before. Thank you for the quick response!
