MultiLingual Characters get garbled
0digg
I
recently ran into a problem where French/Greek characters in my
conversion extract file were getting garbled when I trasnferred the file
into my unix box using WINSCP.After spending some serious time I
figured out that it was an issue with my file encoding. I use editplus a
super cool editor for my development purpose. So this is how I solved
the problem. 1. Save the xls file into csv format. 2. Open the file in Editplus 3. Now from menu navigate to Document -->> Encoding and file Encoding 4. Set the File Encoding to UTF-8. (UTF8.JPG attached) 5. Transfer the file to Unix |
