# Specify a Target Character Set

File Content Extraction provides a way to specify the target character set when extracting subfiles. This is only used to set the character set when extracting the body of a mail message. OpenText recommends using UTF-8 or UTF-16 because these are widely supported and can encode a diverse range of characters.

To specify a target character set

- If you are using the C++ API, File Content Extraction uses the same character set you specified in the target_encoding property of your session configuration object and no further configuration is required. For more information about setting a target character set, see Character Encoding.
