I have a big type of Greek shapefiles, but a lot of time when I show the attribute table I see ?.????????? .
How can I encode them?
Is there any way to make ArcGIS 10.1 for Desktop encode them automatically?

1Do you know what text encoding the shapefiles are using? – Jason Scheirer Jul 27 '14 at 03:29

If you've received them from someone, ask to provide them as fcs in personal database. Work with Chinesse for me... – FelixIP Jul 27 '14 at 04:23

No unfortunately.! But I think I need a way to encode them to UTF - 8. There was a common case with QGIS at this article:http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/44009/how-to-read-greek-fonts-iso-8859-7-in-shapefile-attributes-within-qgis-1-8-0/108543#108543 – Jul 27 '14 at 16:46

Asker appears to have left the site. – PolyGeo Aug 16 '16 at 10:15
