Subject: [Rd] Encoding problem in Rd file
Message-ID: <AANLkTim64+ZkrdnxwFQLtSr0zimDbt61a4L9afNGGwNO@mail.gmail.com>

Dear all,

I have a problem with an Rd file containing French accentuated
characters. I have uploaded the file at
http://filex.cirad.fr/get?k=cjW7lImMaNC6Ci2vX0H

I have declared
Encoding: latin1
in the package DESCRIPTION file

and I have added
\encoding{latin1}
in the header of the Rd file.

When I compile the package manual, I have LaTeX errors:

! Package inputenc Error: Unicode char \u8:?F not set up for use with LaTeX.

See the inputenc package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.

***********
I can easily find the offending lines using
showNonASCII(readLines(file)). However, I don't know what to do to
solve the problem. The strange thing (to me!) is that the pdf is
actually built with appropriate accentuated characters, at least when
I look at it with my pdf viewer (Acrobat reader).

My config is:

> sessionInfo()
R version 2.11.1 Patched (2010-09-30 r53117)
Platform: i386-pc-mingw32 (32-bit)
