Im trying to convert each of my excel lists to a deck in anki, but i figure it out (after many struggles) that it can’t read it when it has any graphic accentuation (^~¨).
Does any of you has some idea of whats happening or how can I solve this?
Thank you.
How are you exporting your excel spreadsheets? I see you mentioned UTF-8 in the title but sadly didn’t elaborate on that. I remember trying to do import from excel ages ago and found it pretty much impossible to get UTF-8 encoded csvs from Excel.
Personally, I found that libreoffice is pretty straightforward in it’s export UI. So maybe try that one.
I hope that libreoffice is the same on Windows. I haven’t used it on that platform.
Hi i am having this similar problem.
UTF-8 doesn’t support Maori macrons whereas UTF-16 does. I was wondering if you @PARADOX123 found out a solution for your problem?
AI:
Māori macrons (tohutō) require UTF-8 encoding because they are special Unicode characters. Basic ASCII encoding only supports English letters. UTF-8 properly reads and stores macron vowels (ā, ē, ī, ō, ū). Without UTF-8, they often display as corrupted text or question marks.
Excel, yes, didn’t want to save my CSS in UTF8 (but maybe it’s just my old one), but I used docs.google.com tables and saved from there and everything works fine.
