Hi, Please check the encoding being used on your terminal. If it is not UTF-8 then you will get strange characters as you described.
As an alternative, you could simply modify the DownloadCriteriaReport example<https://github.com/googleads/googleads-java-lib/blob/master/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/v201402/reporting/DownloadCriteriaReport.java>to run the SEARCH_QUERY_PERFORMANCE_REPORT instead. This example will write the output to a file named report.csv in your home directory. That would eliminate any issues introduced by your terminal's encoding setting.
