I type in Inkscape a word with accented characters (using default font), for example Slovak words "človek" or "dĺžka". 2.) Then I try to switch the font of these words to Computer Modern, in particular cmr10, which should be the Roman shape. 3.) Only non-accented letters are switched correctly. I.e. accented letters are typed incorrectly and very ugly. See files which I am attaching: FILE ComputerModern_accented.svg produced in Inkscape. FILE ComputerModern_accented.pdf also produced in the same Inkscape session by "save as PDF". Both the SVG and corresponding PDF clearly show the problem with ugly typing of accented characters specific to Latin1 and Latin2 character sets. FILE HowShouldItLookLike.pdf I created this file in LaTeX and it shows how the accented characters and words should look like. Please note that Computer Modern fonts are the default fonts used in TeX/LaTeX systems and for many people they are most important. Also, although I am using an English-language desktop, I have installed also any Slovak and/or Central-European fonts etc so that the problem, with most certainty, is not caused by an incomplete installation.
