[pdftex] foreign letter in text

[Aleks Kleyn]

Yes, you right. I added all my \usepackage macros and still have proper output. The same time in my log file I see error
Missing character: There is no ... in font cmr10! 
Instead of ... symbol which I cannot copy. But what I have found. When I open notepad, it creates file UTF-8. The files that I use for years are ANSI. I have about 2000 files. So I do not think I can convert files to UTF-8

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.
