Problem with Persian characters about vcard HOT 17 CLOSED

Anybody has a solution for this?

What the solution should provide

• Converting the persion characters nicely to UTF-8.

Same with accented letters (e.g. à è ò é), that come up as ? on Android.

@giorgiopagnoni Can you tell me which version you are using?

from vcard.

1.2.2. Should I switch to another one?

from vcard.

It seems to be working if I utf8_encode my fields.

from vcard.

I added utf8 encoding to all tags in my last commit but as you said It's not standard.I found another bug in IOS contact.

from vcard.

@sajjadrad You should use the class and not adding utf8 encoding.
Everything works fine in iOS.

@jeroendesloovere check this out:

from vcard.

Thanks @sajjadrad

And the vCard version?
Thanks

@jeroendesloovere I found the problem. while converting with utf8_decode function, unicode characters converted to question mark (?) as wrong. You used this function for show it properly in MS outlook. I commented it and used exported vcard in android and ios, problem solved but the old problem (outlook) exists while utf8_decode function doesn't use.

from vcard.

I checked output with utf8_decode function in MS outlook. like andorid and ios all persian characters replaced with question marks.

from vcard.

Don't really know what you mean and what I have to do?

from vcard.

I think outlook problem is from it's charset config. I couldn't find any charset settings. The file encoding is right but outlook open it without utf-8 encoding.

from vcard.

Outlook is opening file with Arabic(windows-1256) encoding. It's wrong.

This is the problem:

Also, please remove this code for correct encoding in ios and android:

from vcard.

This bug fixed is pull request #51 but it has not any tags. Composer updates v1.1.2 while pull request has been merged with dev master.

from vcard.

Just utf8_decode function must removed, because each line has charset attribute and there is no need to this function for converting.
