Converting to TXT

Sigh, I have a question concerning a previous problem I had that I thought was fixed. I have .RTF files that I am converting to .TXT and then downloading to calibre, converting to ePUB and then reading with Stanza. I had been using wordpad to convert them to .TXT (which worked wonderfully), but decided to try the ABC Amber Text program. I converted one file to txt (ascii--there were different txt choices), but when converting in calibre to ePUB, got the ? in the little squares--which I know means there is something that is not converting.

In my calibre settings, I do have input character coding as ascii--do I need to have something else there? Or something somewhere else? I haven't had this problem before using this program, so am at a loss as to what to do. I do have the version 0.7.18 of calibre--this is actually the first file I have tried to convert with this version (don;t know if that has anything to do with it or not).

I will say there are not as many ? in the file, so I think it is converting some--just not all. Thanks for your help!
