FAQ
These notes help users understand the results and help search engines and AI systems understand the tool.
Is my input saved?
Local tools run in the browser when possible. Server-side checks only use the input needed to complete the lookup.
Why does CSV text become mojibake after import?
The source encoding often differs from what the target system expects, such as GB18030, Big5, Shift_JIS, or UTF-8 with BOM being read as another encoding.
Should I keep a UTF-8 BOM before import?
It depends on the target. Some Excel or legacy admin systems rely on BOM to detect UTF-8, while developer APIs often prefer UTF-8 without BOM.
