I have an eBook in HTML format that uses numeric tags for many kinds of punctuation. Here is an example:

The driver<92>s side door blew wide

Where <92> is supposed to be an apostrophe.

This doesnt seem to follow any standard, and the HTML document does not specify an encoding.

Naturally when I convert this to MOBI using Calibre, there is no punctuation in the output.

Has anyone seen this before? And how should I handle conversion?
