Greek characters in TeXshop

Post by italos »

Hello everyone
New to LaTeX world.I wrote a document in TeXshop in Greek. After I saved I reopened it today and oddly I was not able to view it. I only view question marks (???) symbols instead of the greek language. I can view however the some small worlds in English. Anybody could help me to view the text?
Thanks!

Hi italos,

welcome to the board!

Check your editor settings that you use the same character encoding like you saved the file. I guess it's UTF-8. If real file encoding and editor encoding don't match, the editor may be unable to display such special characters.
