OK, thanks for the clarification.


I know this is not really the topic of this list anymore, but does
anyone can give me a hint how I could fix those bad UTF-8 chars?

I thought about using recode, but since my text is already UTF-8
(besides the invalid chars), and the output has to be UTF-8, too, I
could only do ``recode UTF-8..UTF-8'', which does not help.


Greetings,
Frank
