From http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2223882/whats-different-between-utf-8-and-utf-8-without-bom: According to the Unicode standard, the BOM for UTF-8 files is not recommended: 2.6 Encoding Schemes ... Use of a BOM is neither required nor recommended for UTF-8, but may be encountered in contexts where UTF-8 data is converted from other encoding forms that use a BOM or where the BOM is used as a UTF-8 signature. See the “Byte Order Mark” subsection in Section 16.8, Specials, for more information.
