Hi, in case you're still following, this is where I am now. I tried out this: \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}, it didn't do anything more than without it (it still cannot do \v{r} and a circle above u). I looked at the Czech pages, for my current knowledge, it seems far too difficult, they presuppose a lot of knowledge about LaTeX and I simply didn't figure out how to install it or whatever.
Therefore, the most attractive idea now seems to be introducing unicode, which can be done by \usepackage{ucs} and then specifying \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}. Unfortunately, [utf8x] cannot be read somehow. I'd like to check whether utf8x.def is somehow incorporated in inputenc but I don't know how to do that. Any suggestions? Thnx, Radek

You can install the unicode package and use it instead of inputenc. It is part of the MiKTeX distribution. Alternatively, you can compile with xetex if you do not have too much maths to type (very much used in linguistics, says the uk tex faq): xetex uses natively unicode and opentype fonts.
