I was going to make a function to do this but is there some function out there that will take all special characters out there (UTF 8) and just convert it over to plaintext? Essentially the plaintext would contain \n and \t still but the weird characters like this would be removed or converted to the equivalent plain text character.

if "plain text" means ASCII, there is no way to convert non-ASCII UTF characters to ASCII (maybe except that you can convert a character to its numeric entity equivalent). though I wonder why that is needed as JS uses UTF-8 by default.
what do you consider a "weird character"?
