Unfortunately enscript which is responsible for text->ps conversion in the fax tools doesn't support Unicode. I didn't realize this when I wrote it. Further, it looks like most of the standard tools either don't or only have partial Unicode support as well so it may take a bit to track down a solution. (This process could be sped up by anyone with a good suggestion on how to turn Unicode into postscript using Lucida Sans Typewritter - optimally - with commonly available linux cli tools.)
Meanwhile, I've added a note about the lack of Unicode support in the wiki and will add a check for Unicode in the conversion code.
