I use a Mac and tried to batch convert some PDF and LIT files to MOBI.

This is the result I got:

Any clue as to what is causing these weird characters in place of the correct punctuation? I have tested it with PDF and LIT formatted e-books and I get the same result for both.

I really wish I could get this figured out since this looks like the best program to convert my e-books for my Kindle!
