It depends on your settings and on the way you convert it.

Using Export -> XHTML the exported document is encoded in UTF8, which is 
the default for XML. In UTF8 only the characters which are used for the 
markup (for example <>& ) need to be written as entities.

If you use SaveAs -> HTML Document, it depends on your setting in Tools 
-> Options -> Load/Save -> HTML compatibilitty -> character set. For 
example "Western Europe" needs entities for Greek characters, and "UTF8" 
does not. It is a great advantage, that this setting is respected. Older 
versions of OOo had always used entities. Can you imagine the trouble 
editing source of Greek text?

Kind regards
Regina
