Hm? ISO Latin-1 characters from 00 to 7F encoded in single bytes represent the same Unicode characters as those bytes interpreted as UTF-8, simply because ASCII is a subset both of Latin-1 and UTF-8. 00 to 7F is that common subset. > There is no Unicode transformation format or other encoding that permits > this.

If you meant 0x80 .. 0xFF, then I agree with you. Cheers, Philip
