I believe you. There must be some explicit conversion to latin in
the Fan Chart then...

There it is: the pdf generator (which interfaces with the reportlab)
has str(line) statement in the rotated text method, which converts text
to ascii.

Just curious: if you change "str(line)" to simply "line" in line 496
of src/docgen/PdfDoc.py (or /usr/share/gramps/docgen/PdfDoc.py if you
use packaged gramps), does it help?
