I see the same display after telling Emacs to decode the file as UTF-8. Also, the command 'file' agrees with me: document.txt: UTF-8 Unicode text, with CRLF line terminators In any case, it should be clear that displaying Latin character for what's supposed to be Hebrew text is not what you'd expect, right? Please send me the file which, when visited in Emacs, shows the display of the image you posted. It cannot be the file you posted originally, because that one is clearly in UTF-8. > > Can you send the original files, before any conversion/mangling? > > These are the original files. Please re-verify that. Maybe it's your mailer that did some recoding, in which case please send the files as a compressed archive.
