If you don't care about the display of the diacritics -- you can just edit the records in the editor as is. MarcEdit will turn the data into mnemonics assuming MARC8. However, when converting the data back, it will convert the data to the correct bytes so that the data will render correctly in a system that understands 5426. However, if you want the display and work directly with the encoding, you can designate the encoding before processing the data in the MarcBreaker. There is an encoding option. You'd need to see what the windows codepage term is for your encoding. I took a quick look to see what the encoding might be, and it doesn't look like windows directly supports the codepage (I'd listed as an obsolete encoding), so I'd need to do more research if you were interested in having the codepage display natively in the tool.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] Processing files encoded in (Unimarc) ISO-5426
Hi,
I have a file in ISO-2709 format (.mrc), encoded in ISO-5426, that I need to process (select some records and remove others) then compile the resulting records to a new ISO-2709 file, keeping the ISO-5426 character encoding.
I have no problem with the selection of records, but I'm unable to find the correct options to break the .mrc file, then make/compile the .mrk file in ISO-5426.
The selection of records is based on fields containing only ASCII characters, so even it all the diacritics looks ugly in the Editor, it's not a problem.
I'm running the last version (6.2.491) under Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.
I was able to successfully do it once, but I'm unable to reproduce it !
Thanks a lot in advance,
