Hi,
I'm using the OSM plugin for qGIS to convert some .osm data to
shapefiles. The .osm data in question has cyrillic characters in some
the tags, but when I save as a shapefile something seems to be going
wrong: The cyrillic characters all appear as question marks in the
resulting attribute table. I've tried specifying the encoding as UTF-8
in the 'save vector layer as ...' dialog box (this is the encoding
system used by OSM, correct?) but it doesn't seem to help.
That's a known bug in QGIS Lisboa. It has nothing to do with the OSM
plugin, but with the shapefile driver.
EDIT:
I just saw that there is a brandnew "Shapefile Encoding Fixer" plugin
available for qgis. I haven't tried it yet, but it might be what you want.
HTH,
André Joost
