Re: Missing accented letters in header using lilypond-book

[Mats Bengtsson]

I don't agree fully with Erik's comment. What happens is that the
embedded LilyPond code should be saved with UTF-8 encoding, whereas
the rest of the LaTeX code should be saved with latin1 encoding.
Since there probably isn't any text editor that supports saving a file
with different character encodings for different sections of the same
file, it's probably easiest to write the LilyPond code in separate
files and use \lilypondfile{} in the LaTeX document. Then you can
easily use different character encodings for the main document and the
LilyPond code.
