Posted (#35018, Falkner) Encoding problem
For the recently-posted book below, the header of the plain text file has this: Character set encoding: ISO-8859-1 Whatever encoding it uses, it is definately not latin-1. With the auto-generated files that Marcello has been working with recently, this kind of thing can really make a difference. The stated encoding in the file header is what is used for making those auto-generated files. If it is not accurate, the results can be nonsense.
