| Nov 21, 2014 at 15:23 | comment | added | Frank Matzen | I also ran set client_encoding = 'UTF-8', before exporting the data from PostGIS to shapefile. This didn't solve my problem. | |

| Nov 21, 2014 at 14:55 | comment | added | John Powell | If you are talking about pgsql2shp, you can use the -W switch to set encoding. Try using LATIN1 | |
| Nov 21, 2014 at 13:28 | comment | added | Frank Matzen | My postgis database is UTF8. I used the PostGIS Shapefile Import/Export Manager to import the data from shapefile to Postgres. The original shapefile has umlauts, and the PostGIS data has umlauts. | |
