Thanks, Stefano. I was overlooking the file format window. Had some difficulty getting them to save. When I finally did and tried importing a latex document the weird characters were there again. I tried this several times, making sure that the converter was properly set up and selected, and starting fresh with a new compile/export from Scrivener and continued to get the weird characters. Finally resorted to executing the command in the terminal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net "Hatred destroys.
