Subject: String Representation Question

Suppose, we begin putting our distinguished names on our business cards.
My name is easy: CN=Jeff Thompson, O="RSA Data Security, Inc.", C=US

However, Steve Dusse may want to use T.61 to get the accent on the 'e'
in his French last name.  On the business card, he may simply print:
  CN=Steve Dusse', O="RSA Data Security, Inc.", C=US
where the e' is printed correctly as one character with the accent over
the 'e'.

Is this the idea? Or does he have to print his whole last name out in
hexadecimal since the T.61 escape character for the accent is not printable?
