Common Pitfalls When Exporting Percona to TXT

TXT has no fixed rule, so the delimiter or the fixed-width layout has to be defined before the export.
Fixed-width output needs a column width spec, and truncation is silent when a value is too long.
Line endings matter for legacy targets, which often accept CRLF only.
The MySQL traps all apply, especially NULL versus empty string on multi-million row exports.
Binary columns need base64 encoding if you want them inside the output.
