@ptaylor thank you for reply, trying to write plain string to file in ascii format. used mapper with binary output view to avoid additional snap to convert document to binary.

Ok. And you’ve set up the Mapper to map a string from the input document to the special field content
, like this?
Why do you need the Transcoder? The ASCII character set is extremely limited (only 128 characters) so if there are characters in the input that can’t be transcoded to ASCII that would be why you’re seeing that error. (The error message is confusing.)
