That "F8" is the Latin-1 code for o-with-stroke.  So it appears that your
document is not in UTF-8 but in Latin-1.  Change the encoding declaration
to "iso-8859-1".

The applications that show it correctly are doing so because they are
ignoring the declared encoding, and assuming that it's Latin-1 (or
some proprietary Windows character set vaguely related to Latin-1).
