But not the best solution, and only minutely "easier".
\usepackage{pslatex}
gives better output, and handles some math (you may not realize how
much "math" you really have!)

I presume then that your document contains `Micha\"el' (not Michaël).
You also have to insert
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
To declare a font encoding that *includes* the ë character. You can
try encodings other than "T1", but T1 is the most likely to be installed
properly. Give [LY1] a try though. If it works, it is probably the
best for a pdf document.
