Olga, Thanks. It looks like when you first submit a book to the Internet Archive the description of the book needs to be 7 bit ascii text. Any accented characters came up as garbage. I changed some of the garbage letters to HTML values like ó and was planning on fixing the rest today. (I needed to look up the HTML values for some of the marks I didn't know).
It turns out that when you update the text of the item you can use Latin characters, so I was able to paste your corrected text in and I think it looks good now. Please check it: http://www.archive.org/details/ComoHacerUnaActividadSugar Thanks much!
