Then, for Susan or anyone else needing to typeset documents with  
extended Latin or non-Latin characters, XeTeX-XeLaTeX is really a  
very good option:

As long as you have a font (Postscript, TrueType or OpenType) with  
those characters in your system, you can use it for your TeX  
documents. And XeTeX is part of the TeXLive normal distribution, so  
chances are Susan already has it.

The mailing list is very helpful:
