Re: [LegacyUG] Creating gedcom for Export - UTF8 doesn'tworkproperly

2017-04-08 Thread Henry T. Peterson Jr.

Ward, Ian

I transfer all my photos to a folder called photos on my TNG side via ftp.

I then make sure that my media is set up to point to that folder in TNG.



 

Regards

Henry

I would use a text editor to look inside the Gedcom file and see if there is a 
path used for the links, or just a filename. Then in your TNG settings, see if 
that meshes with the path in your Photo Folder setting (and the actual folder, 
of course).

Again, a question. Version 8.0.0.595. Maybe more for the German list.

I created a gedcom file: gedcom 5.5.1 UTF8 and uploaded it via filezilla 
(forced UTF8) to a TNG-Website ( German UTF8). All the "Umlaute" (umlaut is the 
name of the two small dots above the letters A, O, and U in German 
 .) were wrong. (like 

RÃ¼diger-).

Before I used creating a gedcom 5.5.1 and ANSI. There everything was correct. 
But I wanted to change to UTF8. What do I do wrong again? Or does it not work 
in Legacy?

Maybe one of you knows how to do properly.

Re: [LegacyUG] Creating gedcom for Export - UTF8 doesn't workproperly

2017-04-08 Thread Brian Kelly

Legacy sets up the media links so the media folder is a sub folder named 
"Pictures" or "Media" of the web page file location. Look on the Project 
tab of the web page creation screen in Legacy to see your media folder 
name. Where are you putting your media on the TNG site?

Hi, Chris,

yes, I'm German based and it seems to be a problem between filezilla and 
TNG.


I was looking at the files in Notepad++ and evereything was correct. So 
I have to find out what's between filezilla and TNG.


Thank you again for your help.

Eva


Am 08.04.2017 um 15:36 schrieb Chris Hill:


Hi Eva

One immediate thought is whether you running a UK or USA language 
settings in Windows – I guess from one of your earlier messages that 
you may be German based. In theory, that should not cause any issues 
but I have had problems like that in the past.


I am UK based and therefore running on the ‘default’ Windows settings. 
From my tree, I have exported, as GEDCOM 5.5.1 using ANSI and UTF8 and 
have got the following address line (extracted from the GEDCOM file 
using Notepad++)


2 PLAC Norrköping, , Östergötlands län, Sweden

When I export it as ANSEL I get

2 PLAC Norrkèoping, , èOstergèotlands lèan, Sweden

which is what I would have expected.

Looking at the files in Notepad++, it is reporting the ANSI and ANSEL 
versions as being ANSI coded and the UTF as being UTF-8-BOM, so I 
presume that the system or Legacy has placed the Unicode header at the 
start of the file. I would need to do some testing and programming to 
prove that.


Your example suggests that RÃ¼diger consists of upper case R, upper 
case A with tilde and then a One Quarter – in Unicode hex these are 
U-0052, U-00C3 and U-00BC according to Character Map on Arial. I guess 
that the ¼ should be ë (U-00EB), not sure about the case of the Ã.

different codings, which used be a problem 20-30 years ago, but should

I think my first question would be to view the text file, using 
Notepad or Notepad++, to ensure that the format is correct. If that 
says it is wrong, then there is a question about Legacy. If the text 
file is good, then the problem is between Filezilla and the TNG site. 
Again, I have seen issues with FTP systems getting data conversions 
wrong, especially if there are multiple versions of UTF and different 
implementations.

properly


Again, a question. Version 8.0.0.595. Maybe more for the German list.

I created a gedcom file: gedcom 5.5.1 UTF8 and uploaded it via 
filezilla (forced UTF8) to a TNG-Website ( German UTF8). All the 
"Umlaute" (*umlaut* is the name of the two small dots above the 
letters A, O, and U in__German 
.) were wrong. (like


RÃ¼diger-).

Before I used creating a gedcom 5.5.1 and ANSI. There everything was 
correct. But I wanted to change to UTF8. What do I do wrong again? Or 
does it not work in Legacy?


Maybe one of you knows how to do properly.

Re: [LegacyUG] Creating gedcom for Export - UTF8 doesn't work properly

2017-04-08 Thread Chris Hill

Hi Eva

One immediate thought is whether you running a UK or USA language settings in 
Windows – I guess from one of your earlier messages that you may be German 
based. In theory, that should not cause any issues but I have had problems like 
that in the past.

I am UK based and therefore running on the ‘default’ Windows settings. From my 
tree, I have exported, as GEDCOM 5.5.1 using ANSI and UTF8 and have got the 
following address line (extracted from the GEDCOM file using Notepad++)

2 PLAC Norrköping, , Östergötlands län, Sweden

When I export it as ANSEL I get

2 PLAC Norrkèoping, , èOstergèotlands lèan, Sweden

which is what I would have expected.

 

Looking at the files in Notepad++, it is reporting the ANSI and ANSEL versions 
as being ANSI coded and the UTF as being UTF-8-BOM, so I presume that the 
system or Legacy has placed the Unicode header at the start of the file. I 
would need to do some testing and programming to prove that. 

Your example suggests that RÃ¼diger consists of upper case R, upper case A with 
tilde and then a One Quarter – in Unicode hex these are U-0052, U-00C3 and 
U-00BC according to Character Map on Arial. I guess that the ¼ should be ë 
(U-00EB), not sure about the case of the Ã. What I am not sure about is whether 
the German? based system uses different codings, which used be a problem 20-30 
years ago, but should not now.

I think my first question would be to view the text file, using Notepad or 
Notepad++, to ensure that the format is correct. If that says it is wrong, then 
there is a question about Legacy. If the text file is good, then the problem is 
between Filezilla and the TNG site. Again, I have seen issues with FTP systems 
getting data conversions wrong, especially if there are multiple versions of 
UTF and different implementations.
