I *do* have an error--a Conversion Error. Trying to convert my .txt file of notes for Chapter 6 in one of my classes, and all the other files worked, yet this one throws a Conversion Error with these details (a long list!!! can anyone help??):

UPDATE: In this text file, I had originally done a bit of "ascii art" if you will, because I was creating a text based illustration of a type of circuit component (an operational amplifier if you're curious). There were no special characters (all were normally available on the keyboard without using ALT + codes)--everything just had a lot of spaces in between to make it all line up.

When I removed those illustrations however, the conversion worked fine. Any clue why it doesn't like abnormal character arrangements??
