You are writing utf-8 characteres, so the 'é' and the 'ô' are two bytes
long ("José Antônio" is 12 chars but 14 bytes long).
I think you should either remove the tildes, or use UTF-8 string
functions (like String.len() instead of len()) for the calculations, and
then change the encoding to something like latin-1. And hope that your
system can understand the new encoding well...
