Excel CSV export encoding According to my tests, Excel on Mac, when asked to save data as CSV file, uses MacRoman encoding. My questions are:


Does it always happen or there is some setting that controls it? 
If there's a setting, is there a way to make it save as UTF-8? If not, is there a way to export Excel file with characters not in MacRoman preserving these characters?
I found the easiest thing to do was to just let excel export to csv in its own dumb way, then open up a terminal and do the following:

iconv -t UTF8 -f MACROMAN &lt; file.csv &gt; file-utf8.csv
