I attach a file as an example of SAS format file which is not properly read by 3rd party library. Hebrew data / text seems to be encoded with ISO 8859-8 code page in this file. SPSS Modeler leveraging this 3rd party library is not capable of properly processing Hebrew data (as a result of faulty SAS reading engine in this 3rd party library). Obviously one of the solutions would be to seek resolution of proper support for Hebrew in 3rd party library. However, usually embarking on this journey may be very time consuming and not necessarily productive. Thus I was wondering if there is any preferable / recommend toolkit / library for reading SAS files. By a way of example: for handling / reading PDF documents I would suggest to use: https://pdfbox.apache.org/ for handling / reading Microsoft Office documents I would suggest to use: https://poi.apache.org/
