PDF export fails if there is U+FFFD in issue data or journals

Description
When users add special characters to issues (often by copy/pasting text from terminals to issue journals), they cannot export these issues to PDF and get an error (invalid byte sequence in UTF-8).
Here is an example. With these special characters in it, an error should occur when we try to export this issue to PDF.

The problem occurs on my server (with Redmine 2.5.2 / ruby 2.0.0 and no plugin) but everything seems to work fine here...

Can you try to reproduce: 1/ on redmine 2.5.2 with ruby 1.9.3, 2/ on current trunk ? Anyway the stack trace would be helpful (I have access to this through our common instance but not other contributors ;)). Maybe we can force encoding somewhere.
Note that I'd like to see it reproduced on current trunk because r13358 has extracted the vendored rfpdf plugin and we will use the gem starting with 2.6.0, so I'd like to see if issue is the same with that. But if we can fix that for 2.5.3, let's go then ;-)

PDF export works fine with ruby 1.9.3 and redmine 2.5.2.
The error occurs with ruby 2.0.0 and ruby 2.1.2.
Here is the stack trace:

I think your ruby 2.0.0 and 2.1.2 are broken.
Because Redmine 2.5 uses 'ASCII-8BIT'.

Did you try with Redmine 2.5.2?
It appears the error is gone with trunk version of Redmine. It only occurs with 2.5.2 and ruby > 2.0.0 (I reproduced the bug on my Mac, but also on a linux server and even on Heroku ;)
