And that is the thing where it goes wrong.  You need to install the
proper fonts which are packaged in the mfdcfnt package which is because
of copyright restrictions in the non-free part of the distribution 
(probably not on a cd).

LaTeX and 8bit input

[Christian Lynbech]

How can I get LaTeX to accept 8bit input and display the full
isolatin1 character set. Currently, it (seems as it) simply discards
the extensions, displaying a word such as

t.st

as

tst

(substitute your favorite non-ascii 8bit isolatin1 character for the
dot abov).


Here at departement, we have a style called `isolatin1' that enables
the display of these extended characters.

In a previous version of debian (believe it was 1.1 beta), it worked
to include the style `t1enc', but doing this under 1.1-fixed, tries to
generate some fonts such as dcr1000m, but this process fails rather
quickly.

I have also tried using the `inputencoding' style giving the `latin1'
option, but with no visible effect.
