I actually had to deal with this issue a while back. Make sure the XML is
properly encoded (UTF-8), and make sure XEP is using a font that supports
Cyrillic characters. In my case, I had to purchase a unicode version of
Arial, and then modify the xep.xml file:
<fonts xmlns="http://www.renderx.com/XEP/config"
xml:base="fonts/"
default-family="Arial">
<font-group label="Russian Project" embed="true" subset="true">
<font-family name="Arial">
<font><font-data ttf="ARIALUNI.TTF"/></font>
<font style="oblique"><font-data ttf="ariali.ttf"/></font>
<font weight="bold"><font-data ttf="arialbd.ttf"/></font>
<font weight="bold" style="oblique"><font-data
ttf="arialbi.ttf"/></font>
</font-family>
</font-group>
Etc.
Hope this helps.
