Export to PDF ignores characters with umlauts for some fonts that do have umlaut
characters present; e.g. Nimbus doesn't work, Times does (happens to be a
generic PDF font, too). Setting up a locale with umlauts seems to fix this 
problem.

OO should either warn about problems with saving/exporting, or simply assume a
standard iso-8859-1 character set in case of an unset (or 'C') locale. If the
user can type umlauts, then it's also fair for her to assume they will be dealt
with in a correct manner during save/export.

Note that many users might not have a locale set on their system, and exporting
spaces instead of characters with umlauts is quite likely the wrong thing to do
in any case.

Perhaps some improvement in this regard is possible.
