no, the diacritic character is not displayed correctly and also there are paragraph breaks on the characters.
However, I have some e-pubs files dowwloaded from internet and using diacritic characters, and I know they have been converted using Calibre.

I'm using XP and the Calibre viewer to check the result. When I decompress these files, just I see UTF-8 codification and the following CSS specification:

font-family: "Times Ext Roman", "Indic Times", "Doulos SIL", Tahoma, "Arial Unicode MS", Gentium;

Then I try:
1 - decompress the wrong converted epub
2 - change the CSS specification to include that same CSS family specification of those epub files
3 - rebuild the e-pub.

but no success. In the wrong decompress epub, the paragraphs are already broken with <p></p> at every place in where there is a diacritic character, and the next rebuild process has no effect. I suppose these specifications should be included before converting the pdf.

How one can include the own font to display diacritics?. I cannot find intructions about how to do it.

thx,
