You've provided very little information.

You need to work out at what stage in the processing pipeline the characters
are being misencoded or misinterpreted. Be prepared to look at intermediate
files with a hex editor to see how the characters are actually encoded in
binary. Somewhere along the line you will find that a file in one encoding is
being read by a piece of software that thinks the file is in a different
encoding, and when you have found out where this happens, you either need to
change the actual encoding of the file or the configuration of the relevant
piece of software.
