Answer 1

If you work within R,
try this as working approach:

# You have DT   
# DT is a data.table / data.frame   
# DT$text contains any text data not encoded with 'utf-8'       

library(data.table)   
DT$text <– enc2utf8(DT$text) # it forces underlying data to be encoded with 'utf-8'   
fwrite(DT, "DT.csv", bom = T) # Then save the file using ' bom = TRUE ' 

Hope that helps.
