I think you already know the DOM character. You have to write this DOM character at first and than your data, so that your file is automatically saved in UTF-8 or Unicode format.

I use the UTF-8 format because Java client use my text file and it only support UTF-8 not unicode.

UTF8 is as valid as a unicode character set as any other unicode character set.

1) When you save your text file as unicode than the first two character is BOM character i.e. 255 244 (UTF-16 Little endian).
