PDF and accentued characters

sorry to resend this problem, I didn't have any response and the
problem always exists, all accentued characters are set to "?" when
I save figures in pdf format. Does someone have a solution to that?

Does saving the figure as eps and converting to pdf work for you? The
pdf backend doesn't support unicode, since I've never been able to
really understand how encoding strings in pdf works. (Nicolas Grilly's
recent patch fixed something related to encodings, so perhaps he
understands them better?)

Patches are of course welcome. I'm afraid I'm currently too busy with
my day job to do any major hacking on the pdf backend.

Hi Jouni,
converting eps to pdf works, but fonts are not well rendered, and I need very
high quality results for our publisher.

What are you using to do the conversion? epstopdf should maintain the
integrity of the fonts.

epstopdf should maintain... but not, it doesn't do that!
