"The Unicode mechanism described here" is representing Unicode characters that are not part of one of the supported ANSI code pages with "\uN" where "N represents the Unicode character value expressed as a decimal number." > Are you sure Word isn't saving the file with 16-bit chars (UTF-16, > UCS-2, whatever). So even though RTF supports Unicode, it doesn't seem to support any Unicode encoding like utf-16. An example from the spec: "For example, the text Lab<Gamma>Value (Unicode characters 0x004c, 0x0061, 0x0062, 0x0393, 0x0056, 0x0061, 0x006c, 0x0075, 0x0065) should be represented as follows (assuming a previous \ucl): Lab\u915GValue."
