I apologise for not making myself clearer.

The ADE file format is not to blame for this problem; the issue lies with the fonts available in the reading software used to view the file. Some viewers allow you to select your own font and, for example, the "Lucida Sans Unicode" font supplied as standard with Windows contains an extremely complete set of characters, including all the accented Greek letters.
