Below error is throwing while evaluating the above strings with double quotes for a custom object CO field itemDetails1

Cannot get email content- <div>An error occurred when procesing the email Body! </div> <p>Lexical error: org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.TokenMgrError: Lexical error at line 1, column 7. Encountered: "\u00e0" (224), after : "" near</p> <div><pre > #set( $jsonDetails1 = '#set( $jsonDetails1 = ' + $CO_c[&quot;itemDetails1&quot;] + ' )' )</pre><pre > #evaluate( $jsonDetails1 )</pre><pre class="x-form-item-label"> #end</pre><pre > #if( !$CO_c[&quot;itemDetails2&quot;].isEmpty() )</pre><pre > #set( $jsonDetails2 = '#set( $jsonDetails2 = ' + $CO_c[&quot;triggerDetails2&quot;] + ' )' )</pre></div>

is there a workaround in Marketo to evaluate the double quotes?

Please provide the full contents of the Textarea field.

Note you need to escape reserved characters using \u0000 format, not shortcuts like \".
