Bug Description
When I export a document with text including german
umlauts to EPS format the resulting file is not
displayed correctly. All umlauts are replaced by a
number of other characters. Greek and other non-ASCII-7
characters do not work as well (see attached example).
The EPS-output in Inkscape is, e.g.:
(Bösewicht) show
In Adobe Illustrator 10 it is:
(B) sh
159.563 32.6885 mov
(\366) sh
164.902 32.6885 mov
(sewicht) sh
I am working with Inkscape build "Inkscape050617
for Windows under Windows XP.

The only real problem here is how we can guess that ö is
\366. Is this the Unicode code? Or Latin-1? or some sort of
font-specific encoding? (I remember there was a mailing list
discussion on this.)
