Nick Burch commented on TIKA-867: --------------------------------- As a general rule, you need ensure the following: * Tika is outputting in the encoding that your terminal is expecting to display in * That encoding actually supports the characters you have (mainly a problem for non-Unicode encodings) * The font your terminal uses has glyphs to display all the characters you have If any of those are not the case, then things won't work properly / at all > UTF-8 encoding does not work on windows > --------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-867 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-867 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Bug > Components: cli > Affects Versions: 1.0 > Environment: Windows 7 Enterprise (Java 1.6.0_31) and MAC OS X 10.7.3 > (Java 1.6.0_30) > Reporter: Wolfgang Außerlechner > Attachments: TIKA-867.patch > > > When calling tika as command line tool from within java and parsing the > output buffer with UTF-8 (e.g. new String(buffer, 0, len, > Charset.forName("UTF-8"));) behaviour on windows is different than on mac os. > On windows the encoding seems to be wrong (Währung vs. W?hrung). Other tools > like exiftool work as expected. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
