Brazilian Portuguese Characters
« on: December 09, 2020, 07:21:45 pm »
Jan and friends...

We´re using the external text source to provide a RDS.txt to FTP and Biquad´s ACADIA encoder.

We use the text source and text replacement to provide the necessary changes.

But we have some special characters in Brazil, such as ç , etc... And those are like UNICODE type at ACADIA and are not been saved by external text source app.

Is there a way to correct this?

Thanks

A. QUESSADA

You do not mention the Magic RDS version, I suppose it is the version 4. The software itself is written for seamless use of the special characters as it is completely based on Unicode, including all input text fields etc.

The file output in the external text tool is now restricted to ANSI encoding only (it is not configurable). We did not make much work on this module anymore because a fully new external text tool is being prepared.

If you can, please attach both the text files, the file read and the file written. We will find a temporary solution until the new tool will be released. You can also use the Text Replacing tool for converting ç to c etc.
