docbook-apps

We are trying to make Github automatically generate the HTML documentation
for MobilityDB-workshop
https://github.com/MobilityDB/MobilityDB-workshop
using the following workflow
https://github.com/MobilityDB/MobilityDB-workshop/blob/master/.github/workflows/generate_docs.yml

In the resulting HTML on Github Pages
https://mobilitydb.github.io/MobilityDB-workshop/
the accentuated characters have been replaced by ?

When generating in my local machine the documentation using the same command
xsltproc --stringparam html.stylesheet "docbook.css" --xinclude -o
index.html /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/html/chunk.xsl
mobilitydb-workshop.xml
the characters are correct as shown in the following screenshot

Any idea how to solve this?

Thanks in advance

Most likely this is encoding issue. For legacy reasons DocBook
stylesheets use ISO-8859-1 encoding whereas most current web serves
expect that you upload content in UTF-8 encoding. Encoding can be easily
changed, see http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/OutputEncoding.html
