Item10631: RTFContrib and non-english languages

The RTFContrib plugin when given wiki pages that contain non-english letters, just copies them to the created rtf document, but the document cannot show them because they are not escape sequences. I installed the plugin, created the simplest .rtf template file (just written %TEXT% inside it), used a topic with one word in English, one word in Greek and the html link, and the output was (the editor transformed them to HTML entities automatically - see end of my post for the original escape sequence) :

testing Δοκιμήhttp://qpmdemo.ergoq.local:8080/bin/rtf/Sandbox/TestTopic1?template=Sandbox.TestTopic1.qpm.rtf&filename=pr01.rtf

The contents of the created .rtf file, are:

It is obvious that the greek word was not encoded. I created the same file with a word processor (OpenOffice 3.2), and saved it in .rtf format. The output is:

The clue is in the second line from the end, just before the hyperlink: The word in greek is the escape sequence:

\'c4\'ef\'ea\'e9\'ec\'de

Is there a way for non-english language content to be UTF-encoded?
