TBH I’m just following the instructions in the link   and I did not change anything. Thanks! What other information do you need for me to work on? I have tested this and extracting english text works fine. It’s definitely Chinese that’s the problem.

The issue may be due to the character encoding.

The issue may be due to the character encoding.

I see! How do I fix that?
