CSV export encoding and excel. UTF-8 and BOM
0%
Description
Redmine doesn't add BOM to the UTF-8 exported csv file, so I have to manually enforce csv encoding to windows-1251. In other way Excel will not display it correctly.
Maybe there is some setting to enforce BOM while doing csv export?

Well, the fix exists. But AFAIK it is not merged yet.
The correct way would be to add some setting to enable/disable BOM instead of just hard-coding it.

How did you do this?

I've edited the "general_csv_encoding" value in corresponding "/config/locales/*.yml" file.

hi,
i have the exactly same issue, with the plugin https://github.com/sprosin/redmine_csv_with_bom now the csv export works as expected.
but i think this patch should be merge into the redmine core, not in form of a plugin with monkey patching style

The problem is still actual in 2.6. Had to adapt "redmine_csv_with_bom" plugin.

Doesn't work for me when opening the CSV with Excel 2007 (which is supposed to support UTF-8 with BOM), tested with 7037-csv-bom-2.diff applied :

Could you check "csv_utf8_bom" is on in setting?
Updated by Jean-Philippe Lang over 9 years ago
Yes, it was checked. The csv file is recognized as UTF-8 with BOM by my text editor but not by Excel 2007.

The delimiter semicolon is expected when file is in ANSI.
The delimiter TAB is expected when file is in Unicode.
I don't know about French.

Is there any situation where we want to use UTF-8 without BOM?
Because I'm not sure that a new setting is required, we could add the BOM when CSV is encoded in UTF-8 just like the redmine_csv_with_bom plugin does.
