I really can't find information about it. If not possible, what you can recommend for my situation?

looks like your converter doesnt convert special utf-8 hex chars like german umlauts äöü (which naturally dont belong to plain ascii

Thank you for answer, I've tried a lot of standart converting tools and encoding algorithms and it won't work anyway( I think in this case some not standart encoding was used. But hashcat some way getting password bytes and trying to decode excel file with it, so I think there should be some way to do it.
