Re: Baffling accented glyphs issue

[Bjarni Ingi Gislason]

 1) Look at the output of

preconv <file>

  The option '-k' for "groff" can't find the encoding with just one
example of a character different from ascii or latin1.

groff -k -V file

preconv file | troff -Tps | grops

2) Add the same character to the file.

preconv <file>

  Lesson to learn: always use the information you have and give it to
the program, for example "groff" with option "-K<encoding>.

groff -Kutf8 -V file

preconv -eutf8 file | troff -Tps | grops

  This reduces the resources that are needed to find out
which encoding the software has to use.
