<DIV>Hi</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am attempting to import a dxf file to Postgis using ogr2ogr version 1.8
running on Win 7.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I get errors “invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xfe” using the
following command in command prompt. Points and text are not being
imported.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>set DXF_INLINE_BLOCKS=false&set
DXF_MERGE_BLOCK_GEOMETRIES=false&&ogr2ogr --config DXF_ENCODING UTF-8 -f
"PostgreSQL" PG:"host=localhost user=postgres dbname=IDW password=calgary0623"
Water_Ex.dxf -nln Import_PID -overwrite -skipfailures </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>During research of this problem I came upon a suggestion to check with the
Postgre list.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Can anyone suggest a solution?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Following are a few of the error messages.</DIV>
