<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>it seems&nbsp;( for quite some time now ) that PostgreSQL is using the -c option of iconv when exporting data to a different encoding:</div>

<div class="signature">http://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/libiconv/documentation/libiconv-1.13/iconv.1.html</div>

<div class="signature">&nbsp;</div>

<div class="signature">- e.g. the Euro sign is removed when exporting LATIN1 databases to UTF8.</div>

<div class="signature">&nbsp;</div>

<div class="signature">I&#39;m not sure, but in the past it was different and those characters caused error messages instead.</div>

<div class="signature">&nbsp;</div>

<div class="signature">So I wonder since when incompatible characters are removed?</div>

<div class="signature">&nbsp;</div>

<div class="signature">Could someone tell me, please?</div>

<div class="signature">&nbsp;</div>

<div class="signature">Thank you very much!</div>
