Apologies, UTF is all new to me, of course you are right, UTF16 was available to me.

When I place this UTF16/CSV file all I get is a seemingly empty box with overset text. The story editor tells me the data is there, but it is spread really wide apart (I have to do a find/change operation on words I know should be there to be able to see anything at all). If UTF16 is a solution I must be doing something wrong.

The client will be working in Excel.

If I can get the placing of CSV right somehow (I don’t know how :-/), will changes in the CSV file reflect automatically in InDesign as they would with an Excel file?
