> The Export API return a ZIP file with some JSON files describing Atlas Entities and TypeDefs.
> I am having a issue where some special chars in JSON are being replaced by "?" chars.
> An Entity name like "Distribuição" was exported in JSON file like "Distribui??o". The special chars "çã" was replaced for the "??" chars.
> I tried to change the exported JSON file encoding and the request header for Export API, but without success.
> After analyzing the Atlas source code, specialy the *splitAndWriteBytes* method of the *[ZipSink|https://github.com/apache/atlas/blob/cc601d7371fae1dbc16b55d1ca84f06b745700dc/repository/src/main/java/org/apache/atlas/repository/impexp/ZipSink.java] class*, I tought if maybe the problem is because the *s.getBytes()* is returning the JSON string to be written to ZIP with other encode than *UTF-8*, and maybe set the encode like *s.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)* could be a solution.
> Its my first contact with the Atlas source code, and I'm not a JAVA programmer, so it's only a guess.
> I saw that it's possible set the default encode to the plataform, or JVM, but how they said in this below discussion, perhaps this doesn't work properly in all situations.
