Modern TeX implementations like XeTeX and LuaTeX handle UTF-8 natively
and also bring all sorts of benefits like OpenType support (automagic
ligatures, real small caps, selectable lining or old-style figures and
more) and the ability to define fonts from the system font pool rather

Both have plenty of resources (code, papers) on design and
