As i understand all non ASCII characters will be converted to html entities.

Try this

function fix_document($string) {
    $dom = new DomDocument('1.0', 'UTF-8');
    @$dom->loadHTML($string);
    $dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;
    return html_entity_decode($dom->saveHTML(),ENT_QUOTES,"UTF-8");
}

header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8");
echo fix_document('data here');
