Read Unicode files

Post by Kranzl » Wed Jun 10, 2009 11:03 am

Hello!

Can I use dxf library to read DXF files which contain unicode texts or element names?

Thanks.

Yes (although dxflib has nothing to do with this). Unicode characters are in DXF encoded as:

\U+XXXX

e.g.:

\U+03c0

And this is also what you get with dxflib if you read a text entity.
