You can use FBCopy with ? parameter to fix the charset on both sides. FBCopy won't do any transliteration, but it can trick the Firebird to do it if you know what charset was actually used. For example, if Windows1250 was used, you would set NONE for the source database and Win1250 for the target database. This will make Firebird transliterate data from Win1250 to whatever character set columns use.
