I gave the original snippit a test. The mail was in latin1, so I had to convert the file to utf8. Once I did that texexec and dvips processed it w/o error. The resulting postscript had the correct accent.
The relevant chunk of the postscript is: %%Page: 1 1 TeXDict begin 1 0 bop 1738 77 a Fa(1)-9 563 y(Maths)33 b(with)g(accen)m(ts:)1622 773 y(in)m(ter)m(\023)-46 b(es)p eop end %%Trailer Where you can see that the acute (\023) was overlapped on the suceeding e, rather than using a precomposed é. This is on a gentoo linux¹ box w/ tetex-3.0. -JimC ¹ Have to add that now that gentoo has bsd and osx support. :) -- James H.
