Problem summary

  • The uni-code point of the garbled (3rd) Japanese characters is
    \'96\. As per the default character set used for the RTF
    document this value is undefined (0) in ansi.txt table leading
    to this character not be handled by RTFParser and wrongly
    converted
    

Problem conclusion

    which does not include any undefined values like ansi's
    translationTable.
