On further inspection, the problem seems to be with pdfmom. Here's a test file: .\" Filename: timeline.mom . .TITLE "Repair Timeline .SUBTITLE "6-331 Mona Ave" "Vanier ON K1L 7A3" "File no: LTB-T-028792-22" .PRINTSTYLE TYPESET .START .PP In this document, Dimitrius (also called "Dim") refers to Dimitrius Stavrou, proxy landlord and property manager of 331 Mona Ave. for the period of my tenancy up to January 2024. Mr. Stavrou resides in Montréal. Processed with groff -mom -Tpdf -Kutf8 -k timeline.mom > timeline.pdf the é in Montréal renders correctly. Processed with pdfmom -Kutf8 -k timeline.mom > timeline.pdf the é is garbage. -- Peter Schaffter https://www.schaffter.ca
