Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/7349

What happened?

I imported my transactions that contain Hungarian accent characters and it is displayed incorrectly on the UI.
Raw input:

FÉLEGYHÁZI PÉKSÉG

and

közös költség

Actual UI shows:

F�LEGYH�ZI P�KS�G

and

k�z�s k�lts�g

How can we reproduce the issue?

A good test string that contains all Hungarian accent characters is "ÁRVÍZTŰRŐ TÜKÖRFÚRÓGÉP" and in lower "árvíztűrő tükörfúrógép".
However a simple utf8 support can probably solve much more issues.

Where are you hosting Actual?

Desktop App (Electron)

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Desktop App (Electron)

Operating System

Windows 11

Do you have an example file? If I copy and paste all your example strings, they all render fine. Its probably the importer not supporting the encoding of your files.
