I have an e-pub that contains things like smart quotes and em dashes. It displays just fine on my Sony Reader.

I opened the document in Sigil hoping to correct a few typos, and all my extended characters are being displayed as "a circumflex" in code view.

Can someone explain what happened? This is my first attempt at editing an e-pub, and my first use of Sigil, so I have a steep learning curve.

Thanks,

Chris.
