Paul Velthuis commented on BEAM-5856:
-------------------------------------
Hello [~chamikara],
Thanks for the answer, I have not yet programmed on Apache Beam before. I
therefore also have no cue in how to do testing for Beam. The insight in
getting the bytes right is very important.

> At this moment it is not possible for Apache Beam Python version 2.7 to read
> UTF-16 text files or csv files. I would like to have the possibility to read
