I am doing old Note conversion to new Note. For some special character , I can use escapeHTML4() and it works like charm but for some character such as '£', '~' is fail.I tried to use escapeUnicode() but it still fail.
So I plan to search those notes that contains special character that not able to be converted and convert it manually.
Is there any list of special character that cannot be converted so I can work with conversion plan?

I ran into this very issue and considering I have thousands of Content Notes to import I went ahead and wrote a simple python script that I call 'notedog' to search and replace the disallowed characters for the allowed characters. The script takes the file name(s) as input and the modification is made in place. As a disclaimer I would recommend backing up your files first.
Sample usage:
Here's the script:
that's it!
