cannot reproduce -- what characters are causing this? I will investigate, although comment is basically just a helper to be used by people importing max patches (try doing so without...)

you told there is a way to hack pd.tk (?) file to force Pd into a proper font.
there are two problems:
- displaing non-ascii characters in object boxes, including
native Pd comments --
one thing to try is modifying the procedures pdtk_text_new and pdtk_text_set in the pd.tk file, replacing "-text $text" there with "-text [encoding convertfrom cp1251 $text]"
- getting those characters into object boxes --
there is no other reliable way, currently, than typing them directly into a .pd file in a text editor outside of Pd.
