How do I prepare a .CSV File for import on Windows?

In addition to being able to create, edit, and add contacts directly in Contacts, it is also possible to import and export contacts via a .csv or .txt file. It is important to ensure these files are in the UTF-8 (Unicode) format.

To ensure your CSV file is in UTF-8 with Windows, please

1. Open your file with Notepad
2. Click on File ➔ Save As
3. Under Encoding please select UTF-8.
4. Under Save as type please select Text Documents (*.txt).
5. Click Save
