Parser error when reading pdf metadata

[Amic Frouvelle]

I get the following error message when reading a pdf created from moderncv (+dvipdf) with evince :

  amic@:CV$ evince cv.pdf
  Entity: line 6: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
  Bytes: 0xE6 0x2C 0x20 0x72
  <pdf:Keywords>Amic Frouvelle, curriculum vit�, resum�</pdf:Keywords>
                                            ^

This is not critical at all, but changing lines 141 and 142 of moderncv.cls by

      pdfsubject = {Résumé of \@firstname{}~\@familyname{}},
      pdfkeywords = {\@firstname{}~\@familyname{}, curriculum vitæ, résumé}}

solves the problem, since I am using utf8.
I am not sure that it is valid for any encoding, though.

A nice feature would be that this pdfsubject change with babel (to get it in french for example).

Hi Amic,

Could you confirm you are using an up-to-date version of moderncv and are still seeing this bug? I believe this was fixed as of version 1.1.0 released on July 29, 2012, but I am happy to have another look at it if I am wrong. I use evince too, and haven't seen any warning since then.

I agree the pdfsubject should change with the language used / babel, I just don't know how to do that (yet)...
