I'm running Cuneiform 1.0 and the behaviour that I'm observing is also, like others already have mentioned, that a dash gets translated into three characters: â€”
(that's U+00E2, U+20AC, U+201D).
This happens not only when I use "smarttext" for format, also with "html", "hocr" and "text".
When using Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, etc. Cuneiform will produce â€”.
However, when using Bulgarian, Russian, etc. Cuneiform will produce: вЂ” (that's U+0432, U+0402, U+201D).

Bug description:
At line 1, 33, 55 in smarttext output (see attach). It looks like bad substitution (0xE2,0x80,0x94) for dash.

I use 'smarttext' output format.
