Comment 1 for bug 192398

The following workaround will turn the fields in the generated FDF files into plain ASCII, assuming that they're convertible, by filtering out the BOMs and the embedded NULLs. (ASCII text converted to UTF-16 looks exactly like the result of sticking NULLs before or after (depending on byte order) each character.)

I doubt it will work if the field names contain anything other than ASCII.
