Hi Reed,
A quick followup - I tried running reports against a test account with
Chinese ads yesterday and noticed that CSV report format is actually
encoded in UTF-8. So if your program were UTF-8 aware, then the data
wouldn't be mangled when you read it.
Excel does not recognize the UTF-8 csv fi
Hi Reed,
I've opened issues with the AdWords team for both the cases you
reported. I'll update you once I hear from them.

This problem just gets stranger and stranger. I think I found a
"solution" - if I specify CSVFOREXCEL as the report format instead of
CSV, then I get a double-byte file that Excel opens and shows the
correct Chinese characters. BUT - the file is tab-delimited, not
comma delimited, despite the for
More details. Below are the http headers from AdWords and from Baidu
for pulling CSV files via http GET that have Chinese characters in
them. Note that AdWords forces the character set to UTF-8, where
Baidu doesn't specify it. I think this is pertinent, because I can
tell Java what character set
FYI, I have already tried specifying a character set of either "BIG5"
or "GB2312" in the HTTP GET to download the file, but that doesn't
seem to help. When I pull the csv files with Chinese characters in
them from the Baidu API that's what I do to get the correct encoding.
I think I need some way
The report ID is 60440936 - I have sent a sample file to the private
email address.

Hi Reed,

I disagree. I pull csv formatted data files from Baidu's API (which
looks a lot like the adWords API interface from a few generations ago)
with no problem.

Hi Reed,
csv files are do not handle multi-byte characters well. You could try having
the multi-byte field within double quotes or export it as utf-8 txt file.
