If a part of the text is encoded with one code page, and another part - with another code page, the program could recognize only one of the parts at a time.

Usually the possible and displayed correct variants are between 32 and 255.

The program will try a maximum of 7245 variants in two or three levels: if there had been a multiple encoding like koi8(utf(cp1251(utf))), it will not be detected or tested.

Some of this depends on your Windows Clipboard character handling.

A 100% precision is not always achieved - in a conversion from a codepage to another code page, some characters may be lost, like the Bulgarian quotes or rarely some single letters.The analyzed and converted text is limited to 100 KiB.

There is no claim that every text is recoverable, even if you are certain that the text is in Cyrillic.Ask them to resend the text, eventually as an ordinary text file or in LibreOffice/OpenOffice/MSOffice format. If your text contains question marks '?', the problem is with the sender and no recovery will be possible.If the text is not totally converted, try all other variants in Cyrillic from the select-listbox.By pressing the button OK you will have the correct text converted. If the translation isn't successful (still the text is not in Cyrillic but in the same or other unintelligible characters), you can choose from the newly created select-listbox the variant that is in Cyrillic (if there are more than one, select the longest).If the translation is successful, you will see the text in Cyrillic characters and will be able to copy it and save it if it's important.The program will try to decode the text and will print the result below.The first few words will be analyzed so they should be (scrambled) in supposed Cyrillic. Paste the text to decode in the big text area.This program will try to guess the encoding, and if it does not, it will show samples, examples of all encoding-combinations, so as you will be able to select the good one. You may find this site useful, if you have recieved some texts that you believe are written in the Cyrillic alphabet, but instead are displayed in some strange combination of bizarre characters. or write custom functions you can use (invoice available). The resulting text will be displayed here.įor a small fee I can help you quickly recode/recover large pieces of data - texts, databases, websites. Place here the text to be decoded (max : 100 kB) :
