@command{gpgsm} uses the UTF-8 encoding when encoding passphrases for
PKCS#12 files. This option may be used to force the passphrase to be
encoded in the specified encoding @var{name}. This is useful if the
application used to import the key uses a different encoding and thus
won't be able to import a file generated by @command{gpgsm}. Commonly
used values for @var{name} are @code{Latin1} and @code{CP850}. Note
that @command{gpgsm} itself automagically imports any file with a
passphrase encoded to the most commonly used encodings.
