rem2ps is deprecated; you should be using rem2pdf instead.  It properly
handles UTF-8.  And it can produce PostScript if you use the --ps command-line
argument.

As for making sure your input files are encoded using UTF-8, you can use
the UNIX command "iconv" to convert them to UTF-8, assuming you know what
encoding they currently use.
