POI to read Non-roman characters

Hi,

  I've been using this API for a year and it really worked great!  But now,
I encountered an issue wherein if the characters in the excel is non-roman,
my code reads it as *???????*

  One example is, the value on the excel is (which is a thai script): 

  ภาว 

  and it has been read as

  ???

  Can the POI read the thai script normally?


Thanks!

Hello Gillaume!

  
   Hahaha!  Thanks for the help!  So far, my application only needs to read
the values on a .xlsx file.  Setting the file encoding did the trick!

Case closed.

Thanks.

hi,

according to me the pb is more related to file encoding rather than to the poi api.

did you try to create manually a excel file with non roman charaters and play with this file within the poi api (just to check if the poi api supports non roman char?)

regards,
Guillaume
