Peter, I don't know what the effect will be, but why not try both, and see which is better? You won't have lost anything.

On opening the text file I am given the option amongst other things to convert the file to Western European Windows or Western European ISO. Since I will have to do a lot of work on the file I want to ensure that I make the correct choice. What is the difference between these two formats and which should I choose. Many thanks.
