Re: [help-texinfo] Changing fonts (default one doesn't support accents)

[Karl Berry]

Hi Nicolas and all,

I updated ftp://tug.org/tex/texinfo.tex with the following patch.  With
this, your tests pretty much work for me.  The exception is that the
accents do not show up in the pdf bookmarks/outline created with
@contents.  Fixing that would take a lot more time, so I hope you can
live without it.

I didn't try it on your real cinelarra manual.  If it fails there, let
me know as usual.

Best,
Karl
