Benoit asks, if we in KMyMoney do any preprocessing on the file's contents. 
That's an easy answer: no, because we only pass the filename to libofx.

  LibofxContextPtr ctx = libofx_get_new_context();
  Q_CHECK_PTR(ctx);

  qDebug("setup callback routines");
  ofx_set_transaction_cb(ctx, ofxTransactionCallback, this);
  ofx_set_statement_cb(ctx, ofxStatementCallback, this);
  ofx_set_account_cb(ctx, ofxAccountCallback, this);
  ofx_set_security_cb(ctx, ofxSecurityCallback, this);
  ofx_set_status_cb(ctx, ofxStatusCallback, this);
  qDebug("process data");
  libofx_proc_file(ctx, filename_deep, AUTODETECT);       <------
  libofx_free_context(ctx);

Inside the callbacks, we expect data to be UTF-8 formatted. E.g. for the 
transaction callback:

  if (data.check_number_valid == true) {
    t.m_strNumber = QString::fromUtf8(data.check_number);
  }
