If I inspect the HTTP headers of the response I see: Content-Type: text/plain;charset= I guess it should have been Content-Type: text/plain;charset=utf8 I can reproduce with a fresh XWiki 7.1M1 (Jetty+HSQLDB). Can you report an issue? Thanks, Marius

Helle, May I? i think it is not a xwiki problem because encoding_vowels.txt file is an attachment of a web page (it is like a file on FTP site). Xwiki ( fortunely) doesn't change attachment file content. If I download your file, file command indicate of course: "UTF-8 Unicode text, with no line terminators" I think it is more a browser problem (chrome doesn't detect UTF8 encoding of your file) If your attachment is a PDF file, it is the same, it depend of browser (if PDF reader are included in it or not) Htttpheader is for web page an not attachment IMO Pascal B. -------------------------------------------- En date de : Mer 6.5.15, Marius Dumitru Florea <[email protected]> a écrit : Objet: Re: [xwiki-users] struggling with encoding À: "XWiki Users" <[email protected]> Date: Mercredi 6 mai 2015, 14h34 On Wed, May 6, 2015 at 2:08 PM, [IDIS Technical Secretariat] Ricardo Rodríguez <[email protected]> wrote:

Htttpheader is for web page an not attachment IMO
When you click on the link the browser makes an HTTP request (with headers) without knowing (or caring) what the response may be (HTML, text, binary, etc.). The server (XWiki in this case) sends the HTTP response **with headers**, because the headers tell the browser what to do with the response. The Content-Type header tells the browser that the response contains text content. The Content-Type can also specify the encoding. If no encoding is specified then the browser will attempt to detect the encoding (or use some default / configured encoding) which may not be the expected encoding, like in this case. XWiki needs to specify the right encoding in the Content-Type header.

Problem is that XWiki does not really knows it, not in a generic way.
