Dear all,
I have a problem with an Rd file containing French accentuated
characters. I have uploaded the file at
http://filex.cirad.fr/get?k=cjW7lImMaNC6Ci2vX0H
I have declared
Encoding: latin1
in the package DESCRIPTION file
and I have added
\encoding{latin1}
in the header of the Rd file.
When I compile the package manual, I have LaTeX errors:
! Package inputenc Error: Unicode char \u8:ÃF not set up for use with LaTeX.
See the inputenc package documentation for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.

R converts everything to UTF-8 and declares it that way for LaTeX. It
looks as though your LaTeX installation isn't prepared to handle that,
or something has gone wrong in the conversion on your system. The
letter following "Rev. " above is a capital E with an acute accent,
which is encoded as C3 89 in UTF-8. Interpreted as Latin1, that looks
like "Ã", because the 89 is unprintable, but it shouldn't come out as "ÃF".
I'd suggest updating your LaTeX inputenc package. If that doesn't work,
you can see if the problem is in the conversion, by running
R CMD Rd2dvi --no-clean dja.Rd
and look in the Rd2.tex file that was produced.

I can easily find the offending lines using
showNonASCII(readLines(file)). However, I don't know what to do to
solve the problem. The strange thing (to me!) is that the pdf is
actually built with appropriate accentuated characters, at least when
I look at it with my pdf viewer (Acrobat reader).
My config is:
