Paul,
This won't work because isoToMac/macToIso convert from MacRoman to
Latin-1 or back, while Latin-1 simply doesn't have that char. You can't
convert something if it doesn't exist.

See the isoToMac and macToIso functions in the dictionary. High ASCII
characters (byte 128-255) differ between platforms. The htmText property
of a field will not do a character conversion of these for you.
Unfortunately, if your text contains high ASCII characters you need to
know what platform it was generated on to use or convert via the
functions above as needed.
OR you need to encode any high ASCII characters in some platform
independent format, like HTML Unicode characters such as &#nnnn;
