Accent problem with rft to epub
Hi,
I am trying to convert an .rtf file that has some accented letters. However, the epub output replaces the accented letters with some unknown characters which appear as ? on my reader. If I first save the rtf as html and then convert the html to epub everything is OK. The only problem is that html conversion takes x3 longer... I tried changing the input character encoding but results are the same. Any suggestions? Thanks, |

Thanks!
html conversion time is much faster now. Is there a way to convert directly from rtf and keep the accents? Why doesn't Calibre recognize the accented letters correctly? |

If your rtf is declaring its encoding correctly, calibre should recognize them. It's hard to say more without loking at the rtf in question. Feel free to open a ticket and attach your rtf.
