I am setting up a new new Cocoa project. The name of the project has spaces in it. When I build the application the program name in the menu bar appears with what I believe are Japanese characters in the second word of the name.

I have had this problem in the past and fixed it however I do not remember what I did.

Could someone point me in the direction of a solution, I am not even sure how to state this problem correctly.

This problem might be because of a typo. If you enter a 'Nonbreaking space' with MacRoman encoding, this might affect the interpretation of following characacters if they are interpreted with another coding. A nonbreaking space have a character code somewhere above 128, and will look exactly as a space character if interpreted as macRoman.
If a byte of 128 or above occurs in for example UTF-8, it will be interpreted as the first byte of a multibyte character, and other effects might appear with other character encodings

One further thought. The typo will probably be in the info.plist file. If there should be no characters outside ASCII, drag it onto BBEdit and choose zap gremlins. If there is any funny characters in the file, they will be replaced by bullets or deleted depending on settings in BBEdit prefs.

You were close, it turns out it was a corrupted InfoPlist.strings file.

Thanks for your input.
