Wrong encoding when runned via module

[netaddict]

Hi,

when I start docxtpl from the command line as module and my json file contains UTF-8 encoded special characters, they seem to be wrong encoded in the resulting docx.

To reproduce it, simply add a character like "ä" in the
tests/templates/module_execute.json file and run the module_execute.py in the tests directory.

Cannot reproduce the problem by adding "ä", please provide your json file.

Tested it again on MacOS, seems ok here. Another Test on Windows (x64 Python 3.10.9) failed somewhat (see files attached).

module_execute.json
module_execute.docx

I see the wrong character at your DOCX file but I can't reproduce it. (Python 3.10.13, docxtpl 0.16.5)
Moreover I add to JSON chinese characters and some arabic characters. For me all characters are OK.

module_execute.json
module_execute.docx

Which version of docxtpl are you using?

[SergeyZaykov]

Well on another machine (Python 3.11.2, docxtpl 0.16.6) I can reproduce the problem.
Nor umlauts letter nor chinese characters nor arabic characters doesn't rendered correctly.

Still cannot reproduce the problem : @SergeyZaykov : please provide .docx template and .json file.

@elapouya
Here are the problematic template and the JSON data.:
module_execute.json
module_execute_tpl.docx
Python 3.11.2
docxtpl 0.16.6

Same issue for me - any Unicode symbols rendered incorrectly when running via module. I think the issue is in get_json_data - it should open the json file with utf-8 encoding.
