After that, I get the parts of the document that I want and insert them into a buffer. However, the Swedish characters å, ä and ö are displayed as \345, \344 and \326 respectively. I've tried messing around with `encode-coding-region' and `decode-coding-region' but I'm really not sure what to do here. Any help appreciated! Deniz
