Not clear. Can you please elaborate?

Second thought:
BTW, your font families for both available such that they can be used?

Solution 1

What is your issue? That output looks perfect all accents are OK. What are your expectations regarding the output?

Please explain?

[Added example]

C#

public:

      String* filename = "your file name here";

      FileStream* fs = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode::CreateNew, FileAccess::Write, FileShare::None);
      StreamWriter* swFromFileStreamASCIIEnc = new System::IO::StreamWriter(fs, System::Text::Encoding::ASCII);

      swFromFileStreamDefaultEnc->Write("Ã©Ã©");
      swFromFileStreamDefaultEnc->Flush();
      swFromFileStreamDefaultEnc->Close();

So how do you know that the editor you're reading it in is displaying it correctly? The characters from your file look like ASCII encoded UTF characters. If you want the processed file to appear the same way try to write it with System.Text.Encoding.ASCII encoding.

Since you seem to be too lazy to google this for yourself: http://blog.kalmbachnet.de/?postid=105
Besides that if you had posted the relevant code bits of what you've written it would already be solved by now.
Think about that!

Solution 2

Looks like the editor and the compiler are treating Unicode with different encoding: like "you save your source as extended ASCII with Westren codepage, and the compiler read it as UTF8".

Check the file save setting and the compiler options, and make them coherent.
