Public bug reported: LaTeX files that are imported from a Windows file system can not be handled correctly using Ubuntu.
When working with such files, all characters like Ä/Ö/Ü/ß etc. are completely messed up. All of them are replaced by a " � " glyph. When compiling such files, the � are simply ignored and characters are missing in the compiled file. This bug occurs with editors like gedit, as well as with special LaTeX editors like Kile. This bug is a very severe one for a great number of students and scientists who want to merge to Ubuntu. The work-flow is completely broken. I would propose to give this a medium priority. ** Affects: gedit Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: kile Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- TeX files from Windows file systems mess up Umlaute (Ä/Ö/Ü/ß etc.) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251793 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
