My proof-of-concept best-effort UTF-8 formatter for Postscript:

  http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/utf2ps.c
  http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/utf2ps.ps

My practically useful best-effort UTF-8/ISO 8859/etc. formatter for HP PCL:

  http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/hpp.c
  http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/hpp-repertoire.txt

A more serious best-effort UTF-8 formatter for Postscript:

Hope this helped ...
