strings.xml special characters in multilingual

Hey, I've developed an application with french and english translation. A guy sent me the strings.xml in polish language and in UTF-8 format (cause there are many characters i can't read). I can open it with notepad with no problem, but Eclipse replace all the special characters by another one (a sort of square) an idea ?

Put symbol code in string tag:

<string name="">Welcome &#33;</string>

Output will be look like: Welcome !

For more symbol code use below link :

You can specify the encoding on a per file basis in Eclipse by selecting the properties of the file. Specify the correct file encoding from the dropbox. (in your case UTF-8)

you can also specify a default encoding in the eclipse preferences (content types).
