custom font with font-face

I am using Font-Face Generator here to generate a custom font Europe bolditalic. Everything is working fine if I use only English letters, but my website is Russian and my custom font has no affect on Russian characters. Please help.

You haven't added 

<meta charset="utf-8" />

To your html header or, the font you are using don't support Russia.

Either the font does not contain Cyrillic letters, or the font is not Unicode encoded. The latter is more probable. For example, a font called Europe and distributed (probably illegally) at http://www.broble.com/download-free-font/europe/ has some 8-bit encoding, so that it contains Cyrillic letters but not in proper places. You can see this is if you include letters like “ä” or “é” in your text – they appear as Cyrillic letters.

The solution is to find a better, properly encoded font.
