Could you give us the actual source string, not an image of it? And could you give us what you want as the destination string?

A brute force solution would be to use a plugboard that looks for offending series names and returns the desired series name. This isn't too painful if you don't have many of them.

EDIT: I wonder what the 'transliterate' formatter function would do with your string ...
