Maybe I should ask the question like this: How can I use the windows-1250 characterset in CC? This allows to use characters like ?, ?, ú without any problems in the source code. And with notepad++ this works perfectly.

Sorry, I just realised that instead an ? (o with two '') I have posted a "?"

Have you tried adding a valid Doctytpe yet?

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">
<title>Jméno</title>
</head>
<body>
samotný text stránky
</body>
</html>

Don't have a clue what language that is, but all the characters display on the site:

Hi paintbrush
With my settings in CC your example doesn't work, in notepad++ it looks fine. Does it work for you?

Sorry, I'm at work now - don't have access to my CC Editor here. Maybe Eric or someone else will see this and jump in.:D

Try changing this
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=Windows-1250">

to this
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text-html; charset=utf-8">
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Hi Eric
Thanks, but it still doesn't do what I need...
I've created a word doc in which I've copied 2 screenshots since I can't post the correct characters here.

Sorry, the file was missing and with the printscreen pictures it was too big, so I just wrote in a Word doc how the characters should look like and how they look like with utf-8

I've solved the problem my way: I've deinstalled the new version of CC, transferred CCFreeHTMLEditor 9.0 from my old computer to the new one and installed it there, everything works now fine.
If anybody has a good idea how I could use version 9.6 I'd be glad to hear about it.

That's strange because when I copied your source code in the HTML editor I was seeing all the wierd characters that you were seeing but when I change the line of code from
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=Windows-1250">
to this
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text-html; charset=utf-8">
they displayed as your example in the word doc. Open my attachment to see if it works in the new HTML editor. BTW were on version 12 now.;):)
