[pdftex] foreign letter in text

[Aleks Kleyn]

I use MS windows. I have files with Russian text and English text. So I cannot use windows tool. I just need old style pdflatex report.

If you're on a unix-like system, the following command will find all lines with non-ASCII characters in one or more files:

 

LC_ALL=utf8 egrep -n '[^ -~]' file.tex

As you provided no example it is hard to know what you have done but you
should never get no output with no warning.


For example this document with (I hope:-) one Russian word left in an
English paragraph



\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}

Some English  with a Русский word

\end{document}


Produces the error


! LaTeX Error: Unicode character Р (U+0420)
                not set up for use with LaTeX.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
  ...

l.5 Some English  with a Р
                            усский word
?


Which as you see, higlights the exact location of the Cyrillic text.
