Below is an ugly example of converting a string to an RTF string:

class Program
{
    static RichTextBox generalRTF = new RichTextBox();

    static void Main()
    {
        string foo = @"Européen";
        string output = ToRtf(foo);
        Trace.WriteLine(output);
    }

    private static string ToRtf(string foo)
    {
        string bar = string.Format("!!@@!!{0}!!@@!!", foo);
        generalRTF.Text = bar;
        int pos1 = generalRTF.Rtf.IndexOf("!!@@!!");
        int pos2 = generalRTF.Rtf.LastIndexOf("!!@@!!");
        if (pos1 != -1 && pos2 != -1 && pos2 > pos1 + "!!@@!!".Length)
        {
            pos1 += "!!@@!!".Length;
            return generalRTF.Rtf.Substring(pos1, pos2 - pos1);
        }
        throw new Exception("Not sure how this happened...");
    }
}
