Nothing to do with this?

George, it’s character encoding that controls what characters are output for each key. Not to be confused with different fonts. It sounds like you have changed the default encoding for the system or you have opened a drawing which was originally created using a different encoding.

Here’s a page that may help you reset it to unicode.
