====== How are charsets handled? ======

DokuWiki uses [[:UTF-8]] (a Unicode representation). This encoding is sent in the documents ''meta'' headers and used as ''accept-encoding'' in the edit form. DokuWiki itself does no reencoding of data sent by the browser, so if the browser ignores the ''accept-encoding'' of the form there may be problems - however all known modern browsers do work just fine with UTF8.

Also see the [[:romanization]] configuration option.
