Hello,

To troubleshoot this problem I need more information.

It would help if you could share the file at the following moments:

• When you download it from Alfresco directly?

• When you download it from Web Author user interface before you check it out?

• When you download it from Web Author user interface after you check it out?

You can also use our technical support form to share these files.

Also, I noticed some green buttons on the toolbar. Are these buttons part of your customization? Are they used when performing the checkout? Can you try to reproduce the problem without your customizations?

To understand the information that Web Author and Alfresco exchange you can enable more verbose HTTP logging in Web Author [1].

Best,
Cristian

Hello,

I could not reproduce the problem you mentioned. I used an Web Author installation with no customizations, uploaded the file you sent to an Alfresco server, opened it and checked it out. All the characters were intact. Moreover, the yellow banner for me contained the "Check out required" text. Can you use the "More" (triple dots menu) > "Report Problem" to send us a problem report with more details about your server?

This kind of problem happens when a custom plugin or tool reads the content of a file and does not specify the character encoding. Depending on the plugin you use setting the -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 system property may fix the issue [1].

You can try to set this system property also for the JVM that runs the Alfresco server.

Best,
Cristian
