General ⇒ Danish Preamble Problem

[kasperhh]

I can't compile my report without getting errors when typing danish letters as æ, ø, å. I've tried to use UTF8 command instead of Latin, but I still get errors. Normally it is no problem when I type in english and the preamble works perfect.

I neeed a solution to this problem, so please help me

Here is my preamble code:

Hi kasperhh,

Welcome to the LaTeX community!

This works for me:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

\begin{document}

ø æ å

\end{document}

if I make sure that my editor uses UTF-8 encoding. You should find out which encoding your editor uses and then use the corresponding option for inputenc.

Regards

It can be preferable to choose a semi-automatic mechanism for the input encoding by the selinput package.

Code: Select all

\usepackage{selinput}
\SelectInputMappings{   % Semi-automatic determination
  ae={æ},               % of input encoding
  oslash={ø},           % by a list of selected glyphs
  Euro={€}              % see: http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/opentype/glyphlist.txt
}

I found a solution to the problem: The .tex file was not saved as ANSI but as UTF-8 which caused the problem. Thanks for the inputs btw.

Have a nice day
