Topic: how to set charset=utf-8 in different language profile

When I select Russian language in my profile, many of the words come up as question marks: ?????

I checked the page encoding and it's set to charset=windows-1251

Where do I set this variable to utf-8? I see it's pun_char_encoding in main.tpl, but I cannot find a reference to that elsewhere.

I modified these files, and it works well now:

include/functions.php
lang/English/common.php

My forum uses 'English' as default language, but main users are chinese, it works well.
