I suppose your applications (?) don't display the correct characters.
For instance, they use the symbol é instead of using the correct html 
entity &eacute;.

The number of available symbols like é è à ç (i'm using a french keyboard) 
is limited and depend on the codepage installed.
It is normal that some of these symbols don't display correcly on other 
systems.
Otherwise, the html entities always display the correct symbol.

Could you point us to a page containing display errors? This will help us 
track down the problem.
