You can even use exotic scripts that don’t have legacy Windows code pages, or built-in support from Windows. If you set the default encoding in EditPad to Unicode, you can use all languages and scripts at the same time in a single file. That includes right-to-left scripts such as Hebrew or Arabic and complex scripts such as the Indic scripts. You can use any keyboard layout and any IME (input method editor) for any language or script that Windows provides in the Regional Settings in the Control Panel. Convert files between any of these encodings. Open and save text files encoded in Unicode (UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32), any Windows code page, any ISO-8859 code page, and a variety of DOS, Mac, EUC, EBCDIC, and other legacy code pages. You can convert between any two encodings listed below.ĮditPad Lite handles DOS/Windows, UNIX/Linux and Macintosh line breaks. EditPad Lite only converts a file’s encoding if you explicitly ask it to. EditPad Lite preserves the compatibility of all files you edit with the legacy systems that may still be using those files. This allows EditPad Lite to open huge files instantly. If the wrong encoding is used by the editor, or if the file had invalid characters, data corruption will occur.ĮditPad Lite reads and edits files in their original encoding.

This reduces performance with large files. Many other text editors automatically convert each file you open to Unicode, and convert it back to the legacy encoding when saving. You’ll never have to worry about being unable to open a text file, and you’ll always be able to save your files in a format that people with less flexible text editors can read. Open text files saved on Linux, UNIX and Macintosh computers, or even text files from old DOS PCs or IBM mainframes. You can edit all text files with EditPad Lite. EditPad Lite is a compact text editor for Windows.
