FWIW, I was able to reproduce the exception
Iconv::IllegalSequence
with a simple ruby program (rvm ruby 1.9.3).

`require': iconv will be deprecated in the future, use String#encode
instead.
convert.rb:7:in `conv': " style=\"padding-"... (Iconv::IllegalSequence)
from convert.rb:7:in `<main>'
I will do a little bit of research more,
