How can I print raw data (string) from a UTF-8 .php file?

Simple

echo $var

ouputs unicode string to browser (with unicode prefix bytes), but if I
want to ouput BLOB data (jpeg file)?

Help!

Samething, but with the proper headers set.
<http://in2.php.net/header>

eg. <p>foo foo <img src="image.php" /> </p>

OK, first things first - what do you define as a "UTF-8 .php file"?

You just output it. PHP knows very little about character encodings in the
first place; when you print, it always prints raw bytes. How they're
interpreted by the client depends on the Content-type header sent to the
browser.
