Excel file generated within a classic report is not-readable (plenty of special characters)

mario_77Sep 29 2017 — edited Sep 29 2017

Hi folks,

I'm trying to export a classic report into Excel with the print option in the attributes report.

I'm using apex 5.0.3. The file is generated with the "xls" extension. When I try to open it I get a warning because of the format of my file. I'm using excel 2013. When the files open, I get plenty of non readable special characters.

However, I tried in oracle apex cloud (apex 5.1.3) and it worked well.

I don't know if it's a bug in Apex 5.0 or I'm missing someting in the configuration (e.g. I need a print engine or something else ?).

Do you have any idea of what could be the issue here ?

Thanks in advance::)
