This really depends on your pdf or rtf generation routine/library.  
Does it accept unicode objects? If yes, I'd expect it to require  
supplying encoding in some way (default setting, configuration). PDF  
by default uses latin1 encoding and has only latin1 fonts, so  
generating documents that contain characters from outside latin1 range  
usually require some additional work to embed these fonts in  
documents. And to complete the mess, Windows (and Word) does not use  
latin1 (see: http://effbot.org/zone/unicode-gremlins.htm).
