Hi,
Wonder if anyone can help.
I have a excel file with english terms, which I sent to translators to translate into Tamil language.
When the file comes back, it shows rubbish characters:
e.g.:
Col A: Col B:
Acting nFtftlf
I was told to install a mylaiplain font set on my PC to be able to view it. I did it and is fine.
However, I'm actually using the terms in this excel file to be import into a system/server, which will publish the words on html web page. But with the import, it does not work - on the system end, it does not show the Tamil characters.
I was told that I need to save the file and preserved it's unicode. I'd like to ask how to do that. Cos, if I told the translators to click save as and select the file type as unicode, it will be saved as a *.txt file. However, the import process into this server requires a .csv or .xls or any properly delimited file.
can someone advise how can the unicode be preserved in the excel file? The software that the translator used is called mylaiplain.
Please help..
