Hi I imported some text using the Quantum GIS dxf2postgiswhich somehow became distorted through the import. What should have been imported was TK-208. What I got was %%UTK-208%%U. Perhaps I did something wrong while using dxf2postgis? Otherwise, I can trim the text using - select trim (both '% U' from '%%UTK-208%%U') . However I would need to know what it is that needs to be trimmed from future imports, which isn't always possible. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to resolve this.
Have not used dxf2postgis, but at a guess the %%U markers are used to denote Unicode?
Maybe look in the dxf2postgis docs to see what it has to say about encoding?
Many thanks in advance. Bob
