But I can type ü,ä,ö in the same buffer and they appear as they ought to.

Because they not necessarily need to be encoded in UTF-8. There is a dozen of ISO Latin encodings, MS Windows has a few dozens others, there are proprietary encoding like NeXT, HP-Roman, MacRoman ... too.


What do you suggest to "encode" the buffer?

Apply a different "coding system" on this buffer. Look at menu Options -> Mule -> Set Coding Systems. More in *info*. Look also at functions

        prefer-coding-system
        modify-coding-system-alist

and variables

        file-coding-system-alist
        file-name-coding-system

and at your environment variables.
