you substitute the char having hex code 0x97 (a long "-" sign, happens often) with the usual "-" char.
PLEASE don't replace the "em-dash" with a hypen. They are completely different characters, and are used for different purposes. I hate it when people incorrectly use a hyphen when they really mean to use an em-dash.
