Hello Roger,

Unfortunately, we cannot determine the offset of the invalid character.
As an workaround, maybe you can set the "Encoding errors handling" 
option as "REPLACE", open the document, and search for the replacement 
character (�).
You can find more details about the encoding error handling in our user 
manual:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/23.0/ug-editor/topics/preferences-encoding.html#preferences-encoding__encoding-errors-handling

Best Regards,
Octavian
