Nope... FreeMarker has no control over the MIME-type or over the
output charset (which should be ISO-8859-1 if you want to keep the
bits); the embedding framework has. Even then, it would be quite
inefficient due to FreeMarker uses 16 bit char-s (UNICODE) internally.
Last not least, it would be a miss-use of FreeMarker.
