Hm, do I understand it right that this means that there is no easy way
to convert such an encoding to Unicode?
No, the encodings used in RTF files must be well-known unless the font
itself is a weird font developed for Win 3.x.
They are most likely one of DOS/Windows codepages or MacOS scripts.
Remember, before Cocoa, ATSUI, and Uniscribe, apps could access
characters only in those encodings even though fonts could have its own
encodings.
