Any ideas how to coerce styled text to plain text?

I'm using the following to extract "string" data if I don't know, whether theString is a plain string, styled text of Unicode text:

get <<class ktxt>> of (theString as international text as record)

Be warned that you may be losing information - "styled text" carries information about encodings, whereas a plain string doesn't.
