In EditPad lite 7 I think you can only do this for each defined file type and for all undefined types:

  1. Click Options > Configure File Types
  2. Click the particular file type, or Unspecified file type (all other types)
  3. Click the Encoding tab, and then set Default Text Encoding to UTF-8

This only changes the file in memory. The editpad help says "To make sure other people can read files you've written in EditPad, simply save it in an encoding that the other person can read.". However, after you do the above steps there are no changes to save the file. – boardtc – 2018-10-24T13:15:15.117
