but are they in the correct location now, e.g. ä after a? I'm not German, but I was browsing a LaTeX manual the day after reading your post, which reminded me. That manual says the LaTeX code "a is turned into ä in the document, and if you supply the ``-g`` flag to makeindex, it will order it under ``ae`` (which is supposedly standard German practice). The man page says the same thing. e.g "s is turned into ß, but is ordered under ``ss`` Perhaps check your document.tex file and see if your umlaut characters are shown with LaTeX codes, such as \"{\a} for ä. Maybe you are using unicode characters in your rst file and they are not being converted to LaTeX codes?
