Hello,
Yes, I am pretty sure about the encoding, because my documents uses
the
package \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} and the compilation goes fine.
However, now that I think of it, I did not specify the encoding to
aspell. Is there a way to do so?
Thank you.
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc} %% for accents directly in the .tex file
Add that.
