As a workaround you can set the charset on your pattern layout if that is the layout you are indeed using... like {{$\{sys:sun.stdout.encoding}}}

>          Issue Type: Bug

> The Oracle Java 8 platform supports two system properties to configure the System console: sun.stdout.encoding and sun.stderr.encoding.
> ----
> Default log4j configuration prints to console using platform's default encoding, however that's not what standard windows console expects.
> I.e.
> {code}
> System.out.println("Поехали"); // works just fine
> System.out.write("Поехали!\n".getBytes(Charset.defaultCharset())); // characters are messed up
> log.info("Поехали"); // messed up in the same way
> {code}
> This happens not just on one machine, but on all Windows desktops and servers in our organization.
> Can we have out of the box Layout/Appender which prints directly to System.out/err?
