Converting Microsoft Characters to UTF-8 in Word 2003

Thanks to Liverpool John Mores University for providing the following instructions:

  • Once your editing in Word is complete, choose File->Save As... Image Added
  • Choose from the format drop-menu the option 'Plain Text (.txt)*'
  • Save the file to a known location, your desktop for example.
  • Before the file saves, a dialog box will appear asking you about encoding: Choose 'other encoding'.
  • Then make sure you check the 'Allow Character Substitution' box.
  • Your document is then previewed, and you will see all characters such as 'curly quotes' are replaced with 'safe' ones. Image Added
    You can then open the saved .txt file and safely copy the contents you require into a web page that uses UTF-8 encoding.
