[OS X TeX] BibDesk preview missing char error

I've searched the archives and Google but can't find an answer to  
this, so here goes...

Mac OS X 10.4.8 Japanese, BibDesk 1.2.10 (v483), TeXShop v. 2 (2.09d)

TeX and BibTeX are working fine in TeXShop.

When I try to preview an item in BibDesk I get the error below.

Settings in BibDesk:

* Preview Preferences *
Generate previews using TeX -- on
Full path to pdflatex: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/ 
pdfetex
Full path to bibtex: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin7.9.0/ 
bibtex
BibTeX style: abbrv
Tex template: default with addition of \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc},  
although I get the same error even if I remove this line.
TeX template encoding: Unicode (UTF-8)

* Opening and Saving Preferences *
Open and export BibTex files using encoding Unicode (UTF-8)
Unicode to TeX conversion -- off (I get the same error even if set  
this to on).

The bibTex file has only one entry and uses only plain-ASCII characters.

Reading the various lists, there seem to be a lot of issues with  
Japanese processing and BibDesk; should I just resign myself to no  
preview, even when I'm not processing any Japanese text?
