Strange. What kind of file is that, anyway?
What happens if you begin with an empty buffer and then type German words
using those characters--does Ispell work then?

The problem is that Emacs doesn't recognize characters such as u-umlaut
as Latin-1 characters. (That's why it says eight-bit-graphic instead.)
Ispell is set up in your locale for Latin-1 characters, so it cannot work
with other characters.

It's not the same word: the character code of what is displayed as
u-umlaut is different. The illusion that the words are identical is
because both characters are (by default) displayed the same. Try
accepting Ispell's correction, and then do a "C-u C-x =" on u-umlaut in
the replaced word, and you will see the difference.

What ``ultimate options'' are you talking about? What do you have now in
your .emacs?
