So common language is screenshots... Ok. I updated the page.
Now the exact same file is viewed with two different viewers
at the bottom of this page:

  http://www.yudit.org/security/

I maintain my view that if there is no proven
reversable logical-to-viewed/viewed-to-logical
electronic signatures should be avoided.

And the bottom line is: I don't really care if
Unicode will admit that this is a problem. If
my reasoning (not my screenshots) convince
*some* people not to sign electronically unicode
text I think I did those guys good - and that
is enough satisfaction for me.
