Am I doing something wrong? I realized that he was outputting UTF-8, but if he started with MARC-8 and used $cs->to_utf8 in MARC::Charset, MARC::Charset would most likely keep the data in Unicode Normal form D, which is why he sees two characters. When he views them with a browser, the browser most likely receives the two characters but, depending upon what fonts you are using, it will combine the two characters to look as *if* they are one combined character. > > http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/2003-07/msg00231.html > Nice reference...
