Character sets in RTF messages not working with RTFEditorKit

Question

I'm using RTFEditorKit.read() to get the text from an RTF document. The text is written in Russian and starts with the following
{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\froman\fprq2\fcharset204{\*\fname
Times New Roman;}Times New Roman CYR;}{\f1\fswiss\fprq2\fcharset0 Arial;}}
{\colortbl ;\red0\green0\blue128;\red0\green0\blue0;}
\viewkind4\uc1\pard\tx360\cf1\f0\fs20\'c1\'ee\'eb\'fc\'f8\'e8\'ed\'f1\'f2\'e2\'eeThe reader sets the translation table based on the \ansi\ at the start of the document, which simply maps all bytes to themselves. The initial text, which should be 'Большинство', is then converted as latin-1. The 'fcharset204', which is CP1251, is completely ignored, and there's a lovely line in the RTFReader class
/* TODO: per-font font encodings ( \fcharset control word ) ? */Does anyone know how to extract non latin1 text from RTF or what other tools can be used to extract text from RTF.
Thanks

Hello,
Specifying the character set for a WebLogic webservice (see:
http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs81/webserv/i18n.html#1069629) is one of the
many enhancements made since the 6.1 release. If possible, the best
solution for your webservice development would be to upgrade.
