List duplicate remover garbles geometry attribute

Hi,
The garbled string looks like decoded characters assuming the original string is representing hexadecimal character codes. This result might be natural when extracting the string as binary.
Hex. code --> Character (Latin-1 local?)
31 --> 1
49 --> I
A8 --> ¨
83 --> ƒ
16 --> <data link escape>
00 --> <null>
60 --> `
C2 --> Â
03 --> <end of text>
0D --> <carriage return>
... If you need to get the original string, try these:
Read the original data as a string value (not as binary),
or
Use the BinaryEncoder (Encoding Type: HEX) to encode the garbled string.
