Im trying to decode UTF-16LE file to UTF-8 problem is I keep getting back kanji and I don't know what might be the cause. Code in question looks as follows
echo("before: ".$line);
$line = iconv('UTF-16LE', 'UTF-8', $line);
// $line = mb_convert_encoding($line, 'UTF-8', 'UTF-16');
echo("after: ".$line);
where lines are read form file and tried to translate individualy, here is one such file
SŃSKA AZKA
asd ŹĆŻĆĄŚŃ
:61:020102C50,00NTRFNONREF//
PRZEODZĄCY
:86:010<00PRZYCHODZĄCY
<101900200001
when run the program returns this.
When i replace UTF-16LE with UTF-16 output looks a little better but it's still wrong
I have no idea what might be the cause of this. I am certain file is in UTF-16LE as I just created this test file. And when I put it into online UTF-16LE decoders they come out fine.
