[Blindmath] LaTeX got mad or am I that silly?

[George Bell]

Hi Daniel,

I'll say now that I know little about LaTex compilation, but would ask if the drive letter lower case z is supposed to have a dot above it as in Unicode 017C as opposed to the normal letter z, Unicode 007a?

I realise this is perhaps valid in your country, but could the LaTeX compiler perhaps be unable to handle this?

George.

Hi all,

 

I am getting a really strange error when trying to compile a latex document.
Here is what is says:

 

l.1 ď

     >ż\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}

? 

? ...  A 1:1 80 Wrap Indent INS LINE Spell TeX --src WinEdt.prj PDFTeXify report

 

Seems it has a problem with the first line but I checked over and over again and it should be ok. Even if I wrote a comment %comment in the first line gave the same error l.1 d, so I don't think anything is wrong with the \documentclass line.

 

Any idea? I tried playing around with the document, checked forums but nothing seems to work. It was all fine until now.

 

Thanks,

Dan
