    UTF 8 characters in media file names

    Hi,

    I have a large number of documents in the media section that use unicode characters e.g. ċ, ġ, ħ and ż. Umbraco lets my users upload these without issue. However, when I try to render a link via razor those characters are being replaced by andNNN where NNN is the numeric code for the character. That is, a filename like this

    s-331-241115-tħassir-ta-laqgħat-ta-kumitati.pdf
    

    is rendered as:

    s-331-241115-tand295assir-ta-laqgand295at-ta-kumitati.pdf
    

    Here's the code I'm using to render the link:

    @if (@Model.Content.HasValue("document"))
    {
      IPublishedContent doc = Model.Content.GetPropertyValue<IPublishedContent>("document");
    
      <div class="table-responsive">
        <table class="col-md-12 table table-striped table-bordered">
          <tbody>
            <tr>
              <td class="col-md-3 col-xs-6">&nbsp;</td>
              <td class="col-md-9 col-xs-6"><a href="@doc.Url" target="_blank">@Umbraco.Field("#Download.Document")</a></td>
            </tr>
          </tbody>
        </table>
      </div>}
    

    I've tried turning off Ascii replacements in URL via umbracoSettings.config

    <urlReplacing removeDoubleDashes="true" toAscii="false">
    

    but this doesn't seem to have had any effect on this issue and right now I'm at a loss as to where the problem is occurring. Is it my code, umbraco config, or maybe an IIS setting?

    TIA

    Ver
