Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ Encoding Problem with Latin Characters

[tonguim]

Hi all,

I'm writing a class note. During the compilation process, I got the following error message:

Code: Select all

LaTeX Warning: Unused global option(s):

? 

This is the heading of my .tex file:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[sa4paper, 11pt]{report}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[french]{babel}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{color}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{subfigure}
\usepackage{verbatim}

The problem occurs after I added and removed 2 characters with accent: the compilation didn't work again. Yet I have another file with the same heading which compilation works succesfully.
I tried to remove the .aux, .out, .log, .toc and .pdf files created during the compilation process from my workdirectory, but it did not fix the problem.

What to do please? Thanks.

The problem is probably hyperref:

Make sure it comes last of your loaded packages, to give it a fighting chance of not being over-written, since its job is to redefine many LATEX commands.

Also you should use proper accents (if you are not already):
