The machine used for viewing both sets of pages is the same.

The difference between the two sets of pages is simply that the body of 
the page in /system/bodies/... has all the accented characters changed 
to '?'.  In the generated .zip file, the characters are there, so I 
don't think the exporting is the problem, it's an import problem.

Again, it's not a browser issue, the files are being changed by the 
import process.

I'm assuming that there is no native OpenCMS code that makes these 
changes, what are the external libraries used during the import 
process?  Could there be a codepage problem there?

Thanks.
