Why do I still need MacToISO, when working with UTF-8?

Can you explain (with code examples if possible) what you are calling 
MacToIso() on, and how you are using its output?

It isn't entirely clear exactly what steps you are taking in your 
previous email and it sounds like the problem is at the point of LC's 
communication with PHP, rather than within LC.

Thanks in advance!

Mark.
