Why are you using the palatino package, which is noted as being obsolete in the psfnns documentation, when the mathpazo package has replaced it?

Howdy,

That certainly won't happen since you are using OT1 encoding and those characters are not in the ASCII set. To fix that use

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} % assuming you are saving the file with UTF-8 encoding
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} % use a font encoding that includes accented characters directly

Good Luck,
