Hi @citr dsz​ ,

for french accent support you can go in talend to Window--> preference -->Talend-->Specific Settings --> checked Allow specific characters for columns of schema.

Space are not allowed by talend (it's a java variable name constraint on column name),

maybe this topic can help you :
