A texinfo document starts with:
\def\fontprefix{pl}
\input texinfo
@....
When making a pdf (ps, or dvi) out of it, one runs:
texi2pdf --translate-file il2-pl.tcx document.texi
Fontprefix and the translation file take care of the rest.

Polish uses modified latin alfabet, which has 34 characters. The
surplus 8 are (in Texinfo notation):
@'c
@'o
@'s
@'z
@dotaccent{z}
@l{}
(no Texinfo notation for these two:)
a with ogonek
e with ogonek

Apart from the nasals (a and e with ogonek), they all can be specified
with Texinfo sequences, but they appear so often that using this
approach will make any text impossible to edit.
