You can use the MacOS Disk Utility to find out which file system the drive is formatted to use -

I thought calibre's Save to Disk conformed to the target file system in respect to allowable characters, file name lengths etc. And in HFS+ anything but NUL is allowable. My Linux laptop died so I only have Windows.

What happens if you do a Save to Disk to the system drive.
USB external physical volume • Mac OS Plus (uppercase / small, with registration)

This is the external hard drive format where I keep

APFS volume • APFS

And this is the internal disk format of the mac

I tried to save in the intern and the exact same thing happens:
? = _
¿ = _
...a = _.a
a... = a._
! ¡ = ! ¡ (This is fine)

I think it has no solution and I do not want to bother anymore. Thanks for bothering to answer me.
