Writing a .txt file for import in Excel with UTF-8 BOMby bradcathey (Prior) |
on Aug 24, 2017 at 17:04 UTC ( #1197945=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) | Need Help?? |
bradcathey has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: Fellow Monasterians, I'm writing a text file for import into Excel. As it is now, when the file is imported, any special characters, such as trademark symbol ® reads as jibberish. In my editor, I have saved the file with UTF-8 BOM which Excel reads fine. I've looked at File::BOM but before installing and trying that, are there any other considerations? Thanks!
