How to find and replace special characters in layer
I work with a foreign language, which use letters like Ö,Ä,Å. I get some drawings containing this letters and this creates some problem when doing machine control and using dxf. Those characters' kind of breaks the dxf in the machine.
Is there an easy way to take those letters in the layer and change them to O,A,A? Maybe a lisp that could be modified.

LISP will not overcome DXF issues with those special characters.

You can use regular expressions in the RRENAME LISP utility (free). Just set the Layers option, search for:
[^\x20-\x7F]
and replace it e.g. with:
_
You may need to repeat this several times.
