As the repsective link on the CUPS website is still hidden from public view,
I'll announe it this way:

	http://www.srz.de/Members/bla/cups/filter/texttops%20wrapper

The wrapper script (written in Perl) tries to guess the source data
encoding using Perl's Encoding::Guess package, converting it to
UTF-8 and feeding that into the original texttops filter.

For details see the documentation under the above link (PDF).

Note that the wrapper script needs Perl 5.8.1 or higher.
