Could you please include this type of coding - it is part of Utf-8.
You need font that supports those characters. When codint of text is UTF-8, the only thing that prevents PB360 from displaying the text properly is missing characters from font.

try one of those fonts

have a look at Gentium first.

Also try installing this font

You can install the font by naming it with a .ttf suffix (if it doesn't already have such name and copying it into X:\system\font directory you see when you connect reader to computer. X: is whatever letter computer assigns to your reader.
