What do you think that is ? By default all special characters are
simply stripped. And how is UTF8String defined ? As far as I know,
the compiler does not know a UTF8String native type. It's just an
alias for AnsiString ?

It's simply tested.
Var
S : String;
T : UTF8string;
begin
T:='something with special chars';
S:=T;
T:=S;
Writeln(T);
end;
