Talk:LaTeX/Accents

From Wikibooks, the open-content textbooks collection

If you are typing a whole document in a language other than English, it's cumbersome to type each individual accent as, e.g., \~{} -- i.e., you'd rather type the accents directly in the source code in the native language. I can accomplish that including the following three lines in the tex file header:

\usepackage{ae} % or {zefonts}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
