First, check if actual data in your tables after this conversion is really properly encoded. Launch your mysql command line client, execute SET NAMES latin1; and do some selects on your table data to see if it's readable. If it is, then all you need is to make PHP use latin1 when reading data from db server. One way to do this is to issue 'SET NAMES latin1' query after establishing a connection. There are also some ways to set this as global option for all websites if you can't modify scripts.
