    hello

    When I export to CSV a table that contains RTL characters, the outcome (checked in excel) is gibberish! All numbers and English characters are OK.

    Can you please fix and add RTL support for the export function? Millions are using RTL ?
    Thanks

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    What do you mean with RTL characters? Do you mean e.g. characters from Arabic languages?

    Those are usually exported fine, by giving the CSV file a UTF-8 character encoding. Unfortunately, Excel does sometimes not load these files properly. Please try opening the CSV file in a text editor to see if the characters are correct there.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    thanks for your quick reply

    I worked on a TablePress table and filled it with mixed English and Hebrew characters.
    Hebrew was entered after dir=”rtl” tag. e.g. <p dir=”rtl”>????</p>
    On TablePress and on live site all looks OK.
    I exported the tables and opened it on excel 2010 where all Hebrew characters are seen as gibberish.
    in Notepad++ it seems OK

    ALL OK!
    sorry for the trouble, I changed the encoding of Exel while importing and all is OK
    Thanks and sorry for the trouble ?
