How to use cegui to render to a texture?

[iversion]

I want to show Chinese on the texture in the OGRE render window. I knew that CEGUI support showing Chinese.
But my question is how to use cegui to write Chinese to a texture (the ones it normally then puts up 2d on the screen)?Should I just load the font and write it to the texture, and that is so? I can show Chinese on the GUI panel by using the configure font file --OGRE_HOME\media\gui\simhei-12.font. When I show Chinese, I just convert the String to utf8 format then job is done. But what should I do when I want write Chinese to a texture?
I am very new to CEGUI. Could anybody give me a solution?
Thank you!

I think I saw a Chinese CEGUI text renderer somewhere at the Ogre Forum, quite recently.

((search for chinese and cegui))

Yes, I did that. But the people there just mentioned a few words, with little details. So I have to come here ask for help.
And now I use CEGUIFont object to draw some Chinese text by using the drawText function. But I can't still draw the text to the texture.
All I want is that I can draw a Text in the scene which like MovableText's effect. Unfortunately, MovableText doesnot support Chinese.
By the way, is there any difference between CEGUI::Texture and Ogre::Texture? Which one should I use to draw Chinese text on?

If you have issues, it would be a good idea to post what you posted @ Ogre Forum.
Ogre does not support unicode, yet. Hopefully Eihort does, but let's see.
Since CEGUI supports unicode ...
Show us the code you've got.

My idea about how to realize that is as follows:
CEGui creat a font texture with all the characters on it. I hope that I am able to find some utility methods to pull texture coords out of CEGui for unicode characters (But i find none can achieve my goal at the temporary ), and if I found, I could use it in conjunction with Dagon's per-billboard texture coordinates.
Can anybody fimiliar to CEGUI tell me what API can I pull texture coords out of CEGui for unicode characters?
