Hi,I have downloaded a LaTeX template for participating in some scientific event. But, when I have opened the template (I'm using TeXworks, with TeX Live 2014) I founded that there are some problems, because, the symbols for spanish accents are not shown. I have attached some images to better show this situation.
Could anyone help me please? Thank you very much in advance.

Re: Accents not recognized in LaTeX template
Do you have texworks set up to use utf8 as the standard encoding? It should be the default.
Can you link to the template? It uses commands that are deprecated for an amazing 2 decades.

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Problem resolved. The encoding needed for TeXworks was ISO-8859-16 instead of UTF-8. So thats all.
Thank you very much.

That doesn't sound likely: TeXworks doesn't require a specific input encoding and it will use whatever you tell it to use. What's more likely is that the template file you downloaded from somewhere wasn't encoded in unicode (which IMHO is no sign of quality) which is why you had to change the encoding in TeXworks for that file.raidel wrote:Problem resolved.

Thank you very much.
I'd rather try to convert the file into unicode but that's just my personal preference.
