I've had problems with converting from one encoding to another.

This usually works for me:

Open file in BBedit.

Cut the text and save.

Reopen in the correct encoding, paste the text and save.

See if that makes any difference for you.

EOGenerator in the past was using ISO-Latin-1, but I think a year ago it was moved to UTF-8, which is good. So I changed the encoding of our templates to UTF-8, and that's fine. The problem is is that we have EOGenerator variable with value is :
