yes. The code is used as part of a webpage where some data is prefilled by my
code. At the moment im just doing
somefield.setValue(myString.replaceall("ø", "oe"));
and so on - at least its readable and all danes know that oe is ø and aa is å
and so on so its workable but not nice of cause.
Then the document is streamed to the browser and now the user can edit the rest
of the fields not prefilled and/or change the prefilled fields. Here the user
can very well enter øæå and print it or save it, email it or what ever.

Subject: Re: encoding
what happens if you enter the form field e.g in Adobe Reader - will it display
the text correctly?
