The following workaround will turn the fields in the generated FDF files
into plain ASCII, assuming that they're convertible, by filtering out
the BOMs and the embedded NULLs. (ASCII text converted to UTF-16 looks
exactly like the result of sticking NULLs before or after (depending on
byte order) each character.)

I doubt it will work if the field names contain anything other than
ASCII.

$ cat Project2.fdf | sed -e's/\x00//g' | sed -e's/\xFE\xFF//g' | less
