strval = "schön" hexval = ':'.join(x.encode('hex') for x in strval) print hexval correctly outputs: 73:63:68:c3:b6:6e so the german o-umlaut (unicode \u00fc) is correctly converted to the utf-8 byte sequence "c3 b6" It should be possible to configure jython in such a way that if I pass strval to a Java-Method, then the str is correctly converted back to "schön". However, jython invokes the Java-method with the 6-character string value "schÃ¶n", i.e., the o-umlaut has been replaced by the two characters \u00c3 \u00b6.
