Hi all,
This is my first post and I'm really at a loss for how to fix my problem, so I really hope someone can help me out. I am working on a web application using Pylons .0.9.6, SQLAlchemy 0.4.4, MySQLdb 1.2.2 and Python 2.4.4. We want to use utf8 encoding throughout and as far as I can see everything is set properly between components and I've got a sitecustomize.py in my site-packages directory of python set to utf8 as well. Everything is stored properly in the database and displays nicely in the app. However, when I try to take a string that is coming out of the database and export it to a Word document, no amount of encoding/decoding will make the Word doc display properly. Since I'm on a Windows machine, my default locale is cp437. Is this the reason? Is there something that needs to be set that I'm missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Anna
