+Importing projects from e.g. the ELOGbook to Labfolder at the FHI
+=================================================================
+
+The ELOG entries of a certain project need to be exported as *Raw* which looks like this::
+
+	$@MID@$: 12
+	Date: Tue, 03 Dec 2013 12:15:14 +0100
+	Author: Wieland Schöllkopf
+	Author Email: mailto:wschoell@fhi-berlin.mpg.de
+	Category: Shift summary
+	Subject: 1st solid-state experiment with FHI FEL
+	Severity: DOCU
+	Keywords:
+	Record date: 1386069171
+	Attachment:
+	Encoding: HTML
+	========================================
+	<p>Today Alex Paarmann and Marc Herzog are measuring in the wavelength range from 10 to 20 micron with a 0.5 mm thick GGG (Gadolinium Gallium Garnet, <a title="Gadolinium" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gadolinium">Gd</a><sub>3</sub><a title="Gallium" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallium">Ga</a><sub>5</sub><a title="Oxygen" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen">O</a><sub>12</sub>). Electron energy is set to 26 MeV.</p>
+
+This ASCII export looks like this in the ELOG webinterface:

+   :width: 100 %
+   :align: center
+
+What is noticeable is that the ELOG export comes with a "ö" instead of an "ö". Interestingly, if only entries done by Wieland are exported the export file has UTF-8 encoding which can actually print German "Umlaute" (ö, ä, ü). If all entries are exported the encoding changes to an encoding that cannot handle e.g. "ö".
