I'm trying to set the following text in RichEdit (v2.0 I guess, as I use "Riched20.dll" library):

{\rtf1Привет!\par{ \i This } is super {\b text}.\par}

The first problem is wrong symbols instead of non-latin text Привет, the second problem is bold text section {\\b text}, which is rendered as non bold. Here is the screenshot:

Visual Studio set up to "Use Unicode Character Set" (the app I'm working on is already setuped this way, and I'm still quiet bad in how Win encodings work). I use ordinar (e.g. not wide char) std::string, as wide char classes don't work for my code - that was my previous

List of main control words used in the rtfstring above (according the Rich Text Format (RTF) Version 1.5 Specification):

• \rtf1
  The RTF document Specification version is 1.

• \deffN
  The \deff control word specified the default font number.

• \fonttbl
  The \fonttbl control word introduces the font table group.

• \lang1033
  Applies a language to a character. N is a number corresponding to a language.

In the project settings you can define Character Set as Use Unicode character, Use Multi-Byte Character or Not Set, does not matter for this case.
