After some more experiences I discovered that Lyx is capable of handling utf8, but not TeX. The problem arose when importing TeX documents with some utf8 characters. Importing utf8 in Lyx is not a problem if the document encoding is set to utf8 or the inputenc package is used. When exporting from Lyx to TeX, the document is correctly converted to iso-8859-15 (probably). Sincerely, Hubert -- Hubert Christiaen Bloesemlaan 17 3360 Korbeek-Lo Belgium
