Manan, Peter, thank you for taking the time to look at this. Peter, to your questions: it worked manually and when I did a manual search, copy-pasting the very same characters into the search dialogue I tried the Unicode values using the <XXXX> as I would in the search dialogue, which of course didn't work. I wasn't aware of the syntax that you've given me, thank you! Where else could I find this? Manan, seeing that it worked for you, I tried it to with a new, clean document. This did not work. But then I moved the two queries that I've shared here to the top of the query list, and all of a sudden it worked. I've double checked by putting it below again, and then I had the same garbled text again. This made me check the preceding GREP queries again, and I realised that I had not double escaped a number of queries, which in combination must have caused the replacements to go weird. I've checked and corrected everything and now it all works, no matter the order of queries. Thank you both again!
