A user encountered encoding issues after uploading a modified product CSV to their Shopify store using the Simple Theme. While price updates applied correctly, special characters in product descriptions became corrupted—specifically, bullet points (•) now display as “‚Ä¢”.

Listings issue on Simple Theme:
I downloaded a products export .csv sheet.
I updated the prices and put all items on sale.
I uploaded the sheet with those changes.
The prices are updated correctly.
However some strange characters appear in the body description of the product listings.
Example • appears instead of a bullet point.
Why did this happen?
How can I fix it?
How can I prevent it in the future?
Thank you in advance.
