@VRonin said in Save a text file with Windows/Dos line endings but while preserving encoding in QT.:

if you save text use text mode on the device: if(!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text)) and if (!file.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly | QIODevice::Text)) everything else comes for free

I thought the whole point of his question is precisely that he wants to produce text files which are not native to the OS, specifically he wants Windows \r\n regardless of whether his app is running under Win or Linux. That was why I was saying don't use endl etc., and of course you mustn't use QIODevice::Text. Maybe I misunderstood... :)
