This is very strange what you say: _both_ rendered version and source
should be latinized or both not.

you should not! HTTP headers were lost. See it on-line and try "\"

do you have EXP_CHARTRANS_AUTOSWITCH ? --^^^^^^^^^
Try iso-8859-1 or what ever you have as your font.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is because HTTP server sent charset parameter explicitely via its header,
there is no need for assumption.
(or, alternatively, I guess you download the file,
see it localhost and have display font at 8859-1
which is the same as "assumed document charset"
so you see no difference for "Raw 8-bit" switching (obviously) -
- THIS IS COMPLETELY WRONG WAY OF TESTING)
