Not to flog this to death, but what you did works for me too - you
just set the htmlText of a field using a version of LC running on
Windows. What didn’t work for me was setting the htmlText of the
field using a Mac version of LC, saving the stack and then opening it
on a PC with a PC version of LC - then the field had somehow changed.
I will see if this applies in other versions of LC. What I did is
repeatable but of course it may be something to do with my particular
setup or versions of LC.

That's what MacToISO and ISOtoMac were for. I'm not sure they still apply in LC 7.0 though. But if you're running in 6.x you'll probably need to use macToISO() on the text if the platform is a Windows machine. Or, you could try storing the HTML as a custom property and re-setting the htmlText on Windows; maybe that will map it correctly.

That said, if those particular characters aren't in the Windows character set then I don't think anything will work to display them.
