What program were you viewing the ouput in? Not all programs can  
handle the Unicode needed to view Greek.
If the output is still bad in TextEdit then it could also be a problem  
in Moneydance (or Java) output
The alternative is that the output hasn't got the proper tags for  
TextEdit to know that it's greek not a bunch of ? I'd try selecting  
all and making the font something which has Greek characters like  
Lucida Grande

If none of this works then I'm out of ideas.
