Thanks, Holger, that is strange: The lyx file is ISO... [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/PP-buch> file engelmann.lyx engelmann.lyx: ISO-8859 C program text But the bib file, produced by Jabref, although it is said to be set to ISO-88.. by default (Options>preferences>default encoding) is UTF pp-plants-newz.bib: UTF-8 Unicode English text [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/PP-buch/PP-chapter-bib> cd ..
