The error message says that your input file contains some bytes that aren't valid UTF8 - Fava only supports input files that are UTF8 so the error is expected in that case. Have you tried to remove the offending bytes and then retried opening the file?

[erpreciso]

Thanks. Trying to reproduce the issue, and copying and pasting the example above into a test ledger in my production environment, allows the editor to works correctly, regardless of the characters (see screenshot).

I suspect the importer I am using does not return a UTF8-encoded file. I'll review the importer.
