Hello Klaus;
If you render the original string, I presume that it does not contain the corrupted UTF-8 sequence and renders the glyphs correctly?
returnValue = new String(textBlock.toString().getBytes("UTF-8"), 0, lengthTruncated, "UTF-8");
^^^ I know you tried it using sub-strings, but this above would definitely cause trouble as it could break inside multi-byte sequences.
