Thank you so much for taking the time and making the effort. As I understand it, the first part of the problem, regarding whether the correct characters are used in the original input file: Yes, they are, and they are displayed very well there, using the ordinary Arial font.

And as for the second side of the problem: What would then happen if I specifically downloaded a font and added it to my own device, and then share the file in question with someone else? Would they end up with the same error, or is it somehow possible to "attach" a font with the file?

Sorry if my questions are on a very elementary level.
