I'm using Laravel, this is probably the first time in 2 years that i've come across this problem. I'm having questionmarks in my text ( result of encoding issue's )

ori�ntatie,

The weird thing is i'm using the correct meta tag in my head

<meta charset="UTF-8">

I've tried different fonts, I'm also using typekit, i disabled it but the problem persists. The text is copy pasted from a photoshop design, so no text out of the database.

Any idea where I should start to look for a solution in my code. I'm not seeing it. Thanks

Solution

PHPStorm was causing the issue.

My whole project's File Encoding settings were set to the wrong encoding.

To fix it you can go to

File - File Encoding - UTF-8
