UTF8 ERROR
UTF8 ERROR
(OP)
I am trying to open a part file received from a supplier but I receive the following error (Part was filed in UTF8 mode but NX is running normally).
Does anyone know what this error means?
Thanks,
Jeff

The parts created in this mode are not compatible with normal NX.
You would have to get the files recreated by the supplier.

RE: UTF8 ERROR
Now we've been providing this help to our partners for some time and when this issue first surfaced, that is a partner forgetting to unset the variable before they created parts files which were shared with commercial users of NX, we implemented a change starting with NX 8.0.2, which brings up a very explicit warning message every time someone lunches a session of NX where this variable is set so there should be NO excuse for any partner/vendor passing incompatible files to their clients if they're running NX 8.0.2 or newer versions of NX.
So we assume that whomever you got these files from, they're using this 'for testing only' option and you need to contact them and ask them to provide you with new COMPATIBLE files. There is nothing that commercial users of NX can do to avoid this issue. It's solely the responsibility of the organization which is using these tools to make sure that they are not providing improperly formatted NX Part files.
