Stream file codification

Julian

What codification I should use for QTextStream to write spanish. Because Spanish has an accent. For example this it's a text:

Por más que he probado codificaciones la que mejor quedó es ISO-8859-1.

I tried several and the one I found the best it's ISO-8859-1.

 QTextStream stream (&archivo);
 stream.setCodec("ISO-8859-1");

But sometimes it's goes wrong, for example this a text print

Intersección: ALMAFUERTE Y RONDEAU
Marca:
Característica:
Modelo:
Red: Autónomo
Tiempo:
Peatonal:
Tecnología:
Cantidad:
Descripción:
Fecha instalación: No especificado
Reparación: algo m�s se agrega
algo mas se agrega

If you see, in Reparación there must be algo más and not algo m�s

That was the only problem I saw, the other accent are good.

Hi,

Don't get too fancy, use UTF-8.

@Julian Fully agree with SGaist - use UTF-8. And be carefull what sort of widget or steram you use for finally printing your text - maybe not QTextStream is the problem but something downstream.
