OK, back to basics

GenoPro's Report Generator producing the standard English Narrative Report generates HTML files in UTF-8 encoding.

If you want your generated home.htm file to contain ISO-8859-1 encoded characters then you muist re-encode this file as well as telling browsers rendering this file via the 'http-equiv' 'Content-Type meta tag.

So one way to achieve this is simply edit the home.htm file using Windows Notepad replacing

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>

with
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"/>

AND THEN SAVE THE FILE AS 'ANSI' (see 'Encoding' drop down list in Notepad's 'Save As' dialogue). This will work provided the utf-8 characters used are limited to the ISO-8859-1 subset of ANSI. You can then edit this file with your ISO-8859-1 editor to your heart's content.

As I see it, this is entirely independent of the web server. The server should not be generating the pages, but merely serving them 'as is' as so the encoding is transparent.
