These are two separate topics. You could have plain text encoded in UTF-8. You could have HTML or PDF-A that uses nothing but ASCII characters.

As was demonstrated by Tim Bray against Martin Rex's ASCII message, they are strongly interrelated topics.

Sorry, I don't understand this at all.

A space character (which looks like an ordinary U+0020 space to me, in both the plain-text message I received and in the Web archive) got erroneously converted to a question mark in Tim's plain-text mail.

How does this demonstrate anything about PDF?
