	A very good question but I am not sure of a good answer.

	I am using the speakup that is installed when buster is
installed.  It is the software speech one hears if installing
debian from a live CD and I must add that it is fabulous so I am
not complaining, just figuring out how best to make sure there
are no artifacts produced by characters that may be there because
of formatting information.  It has been difficult to figure out
exactly what always triggers this effect but I may write a perl
script to generate 8-bit output to see if I can figure out what
is causing it as I can listen to lots of documentation and never
hear it but many email quotes are loaded with it on each line of
the quote if it is more than the usual > symbol.

	I hope this helps in describing the issue.
