HTML 5 embedded content processor: how to force HTML entity output

I've created a custom YAML file type that processes some strings with HTML content with the HTML 5 embedded content processor.
I'd like to force Studio to output accented characters such ä as ä for a legacy app that requires them.
However, the HTML5 > Entities options seem to control only the entity conversion upon reading files.
Is it possible to force Studio to output HTML entities when generating target files or will I need to write a post-processing script that converts all non-ASCII characters to HTML entities?

    In your project settings go here:

    Trados Studio Project Settings window showing File Types expanded with 'Entities' selected. Entity conversion list includes User Defined, Math Symbols, and Cyrillic options.

    You will need to do some experimenting with the settings until you reach what you need. Unfortunately, I never understood how it really works, so each time I just go there and to the corresponding section in the used file type to find out the option working optimally for me.
