------------------------------------
Summary: Special characters as question mark in parquet files in R
Key: ARROW-7018
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7018
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: R
Affects Versions: 0.15.0
Environment: I'm running R on Windows 10
Reporter: Vidar Ingason
Hello.
I'm new to the arrow package in R and I'm having a trouble regarding special
characters (Icelandic). I have a large data set and everything is fine until I
write the file to disk and read it in again (i.e. I use write_parquet() and
then read_parquet()). When I read the data back in to R special characters turn
into question mark. I.e. Veitingastaðir becomes Veitingasta�ir.
This does not happen when I use .csv.
Is there anything I can do when I write the .parquet file to disk or when I
read it in to prevent this?
