Some Perceptive Content files, including INI files, are UTF-8 encoded and contain a byte order mark (BOM). A BOM indicates the byte ordering and is only found in UTF-8 files on Windows
When viewing log files using a text editor, ensure that the text editor supports UTF-8 encoding. Otherwise, the information in the log files may not display correctly. However, if the data in the log is all ASCII, then it will display correctly even without a UTF-8 enabled editor.
Important If you change settings in any Perceptive Content files or if you write external files, ensure that you are using a text editor that supports UTF-8 encoding, and that you do not alter the BOM if it is present in the file.
