Unicode problem with Simplified Chinese

[Callum Brines]

Hi people

I have been very happy using Rev in a variety of projects over the last 
two years, but have come across a problem which I hope someone can help 
me with.

I am using Rev to build a tagged text file containing a mixture of 
English and simplified Chinese for importing into InDesign. The 
original text files are output from a database and saved as MS Word 
files. I open the file in Word and copy and paste the contents into a 
field in Rev for processing. All the Chinese characters  appear 
correctly in the Word file and also when pasted into Rev. My program is 
not changing any of the Chinese characters, just formatting the text by 
adding InDesign  tags for typesetting. After processing the file I end 
up with a tagged file and use the uniEncode function as follows:

put uniEncode(gTagFile,"SimpleChinese") into gTagFile

and then write gTagFile to disk.

When the tagged file is imported into InDesign,  the Chinese character 
E4B88A (UTF8; 4E0A Hex) is appearing as E4B88D (4E0D Hex). All the 
other Chinese characters are okay.

Can anyone verify this for me? Is this a bug?

Rev 2.02, OSX 10.2.6.

Many thanks

Callum
