Unfortunately mandoc's PDF output doesn't handle Unicode at all, and
renders all special characters as ASCII. I am not sure what adding
such support would entail (there might be font issues?). mandoc is
great at rendering Unicode in the terminal and in HTML output, but
getting Unicode in PDF manuals is currently a matter of using some
other troff implementation.
