<div style="text-align: left;">Hello everybody,<br><br>I'm trying to export some data from a Postgresql database encoded in UTF-8 into some ESRI shape files.<br>I'm using PostGIS Dumper (pgsql2shp).<br><br>the
export is done correctly, but some special characters could not be
exported properly. I guess it's a problem of encoding but I can't
figure out how to deal with it.<br><br>I googled around but couldn't find something useful.<br><br>Any help for solving my problem would be highly appreciated,<br><br>thanks in advance,<br><br>Ervin.</div><br><hr>Explore the seven wonders of the world <a href="http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=7+wonders+world&mkt=en-US&form=QBRE" target="_blank">Learn more!</a></div>
