Exporting an Address-Book from macOS I get garbled character data, whenever the VCARD is constructed like this:
BEGIN:VCARDVERSION:2.1PRODID:-//Apple Inc.//Mac OS X 10.11.6//ENN;CHARSET=MACINTOSH:- K�chle;Erika;;;FN;CHARSET=MACINTOSH:Erika K�chleTEL;WORK;VOICE;pref:00000 - 00 0 00ADR;WORK;pref:;;Muster Str. 00\n00000 Musterstadt;;;;UID:00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000X-ABUID:00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000:ABPersonEND:VCARD
I don't know the interna of the VCARD format, but it seems, that Apple has added an extension, reporting the charset encoding, which could be used to map the input to the right chars.
For now I could easily work around this in Bash with:
The example above is what you receive as an exported .vcf file out of the macOS address book, correct?
Could you please send me a dummy .vcf file with this issue? Preferably in a .zip file so nothing gets modified during the upload. I don't have access to a macOS machine.
Sorry for coming back to this so late, it slipped my radar. Since I do not have a macOS machine either (but family member has), I will need to wait, at least, till next weekend (that is 14.Nov2021) till I can fulfill your request. I will come back, then.
As to your question: yes, it is an export from macOS address book.
