Bug ID: 89452
Summary: Unable to preserve UTF8 in command line conversion
from CSV
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.3.3.2 release
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: filters and storage
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: briem...@redhat.com
Let me prefix this entry, by saying this might not be a bug, but might simply
not being able to find adequate documentation.
What I am trying to do is convert UTF8 encoded CSV files into a compressed
spreadsheet format. The simpliest way to try this is:
oocalc --headless --convert-to ods *.csv
The output from this command ends up being huge, because it is uncompressed
XML. However, some formats will give a binary output such as:
oocalc --headless --convert-to xls *.csv
Either way, I observe all the non-ASCII-7 characters are mangled in the output
files.
I am able to successfully convert files when using the UI, but for a large
number of files, that is very slow...
It seems it should be possible to specify an input filter that works, it is
just none of the websites I found are documenting the correct parameters to use
for UTF8 comma separate files.
