It is a simple mapping to a 256 codepage: To quote from the
documentation:
However, WinEdt can transparently convert Unicode (UTF-8) documents
into ACP when they are loaded and back to UTF-8 when they are saved.
This makes it possible to work with UTF-8 documents as long as they
can be converted into ACP (Ansi Code Page).
