Ohhh, thats kinda a rough one... I'm hearing that the artist created ANSI in
THEIR editor - do you know what editor that was? And/or, do you have any other
ANSI/utf-8 files from the process? 

I believe I might be able to convert anything that opens in Pablo/Moebius...
it prolly just has linespacing set wrong, or something like that.

If only PNGs, it'll be tough - but if you have any file that is saved and
openable in an ANSI editor we can get it ironed out I'm sure.

Also, what is insolvo???
