Accented characters cause display issues in v1.9 this was OK in v1.8 #497

When converting content that contains accented characters we find that we run into a number of display issues. This has started happening in v1.9 and was not an issue in v1.8.

@Sparky10 What options are you passing on the command-line?

FWIW, when I use the default (ISO-8859-1) character set I see this problem but if I specify UTF-8 the right thing comes out:

htmldoc --webpage --charset utf-8 -f FILENAME.pdf FILENAME.html
