Issue while reading french characters

Anonymous — Thu, 04 Apr 2019 08:08:41 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to read a file containing data with special characters like below

Aïcha.

If I use encoding type as UTF-8, it is taken as A?cha

ISo-8859-15, it is taken as A•cha.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,

Meghana.

Hi Meghana,

I read a sample file for same value and I got the result correctly.

I believe you have not given the language set correctly for some of the interim component. Could you please check all the component's advanced setup for the flow?

Warm Regards,

I have done the same, but I am unable to figure out what I am missing.

Thanks,

Hi Meghana,

Let us check with our friends in France. Since they are doing data processing day-in and day out with UTF, they will have better idea about it.

@TRF , @uganesh - Could you please advise on this scenario? We have already tried UTF-8 option. I might be missing something silly from my end. But not able to recollect what could be the reason.

Warm Regards,

We need to find the encoding of source file.Who has created this file ?UTF-8 should work for French chars but if source encoding is not UTF-8 , it will not work.

Can you please attach your sample file?
