We have a site which supports multiple languages. Some of the content pages have a "save text" link which will download the copy as a text file. Our first stab at it was to generate a plain text file. The text file seemed to be encoded properly, but we ran into many text editors (Text Edit for example) which did a horrible job of detecting the encoding by default, so the text would show up incorrectly.

Our next thought is to generate an RTF document instead so we can specify the encoding within the file. However, this direction appears to be a bit more complicated, and we're not 100% sure this is the best approach.

Anyone have experience with this sort of thing?
