I dont think by the way you've described is anything to do with JSF.
Have a look at the following link. You'll need to replace these
characters with the relevant codes. Outputting text with certain JSF
tags will do this for you

Hi,
Alter deploying the myfaces examples to tomcat 5.0.28, I am getting
strange characters for spanish “tildes”.
For instance, instead of “país” I get: “Pa�s”. I am using firefox
1.5.0.6 with UTF-8 as encoding and the strange thing is that after
checking the jsps for the examples they also have Utf-8 encoding: <%@
page session="false" contentType="text/html;charset=utf-8"%>
Any ideas on what is happening?
Cheers,
