Hi, I have colleagues who are writing Org documents with latin-1 encoding and when I export these documents to LaTeX I run into problems, because Org assumes utf8.
Here's a little example: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- #+LATEX_CLASS: article * Ceci est un test Voici un petit texte rédigé en français. * COMMENT Setup # This is for the sake of Emacs. # Local Variables: # coding: iso-latin-1 # End: --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The exportation to LaTeX gives the following result: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- % Created 2009-12-08 mar. 17:10 \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{longtable} \usepackage{float} \usepackage{wrapfig} \usepackage{soul} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{hyperref} \usepackage{xcolor} \usepackage{listings} \title{org-french} \author{Francesco Pizzolante} \date{08 décembre 2009} \begin{document} \maketitle \setcounter{tocdepth}{3} \tableofcontents \vspace*{1cm} \section{Ceci est un test} \label{sec-1} Voici un petit texte rédigé en français. \end{document} --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- When compiling, due to the \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} directive, I get this error: ERROR: Package utf8x Error: MalformedUTF-8sequence. In order to fix this issue, I see the following solutions: - Would it be possible for Org to automatically get the coding system of the buffer and then generate the correct option for the inputenc package? or - Would it be possible to have a variable like #+CODING-SYSTEM: iso-latin-1 which would be used to generate the correct option for the inputenc package? Any other proposition or idea is welcome. In addition, Org should use the `utf8x' option (instead of `utf8') which enables to handle unbreakable spaces (useful in french). Thanks.
