[SciPy-User] scikits.timeseries plot and utf8 fonts

hello,

Still working with scikits.timeseries and matplotlib I've encountered
another problem - this time with displaying month names in UTF8.

In my language (Polish) in month names there are non-ascii characters
(like ń or ź).
When plotting dataseries with matplotlib methods they are displayed
correctly, but when using scikits tsplot I get rectangles in those
places.
The other texts (axis titles, legends and so on) ore OK.

For example - there is no problem in this demo:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/date_demo2.html
But the names are not displayed correctly when plotting the first example from:
http://pytseries.sourceforge.net/lib.plotting.examples.html

I wonder if there is a configuration problem or an issue with TimeSeriesPlot?

greetings,
Paweł
