Package: texinfo

Go to this WWW-directory:
http://iki.fi/juhtolv/tolleharj/
Take a file called juhtolv_tolle_harjoitukset.texi (or
juhtolv_tolle_harjoitukset.texi.bz2 if you are smart enough to
decompress bzip2). Then compile it:
juhtolv@juhtolv:/home/juhtolv/tmp2 % texi2pdf juhtolv_tolle_harjoitukset.texi
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (TeX Live 2009/Debian)

That message makes me worried: "Unknown document encoding utf-8, ignoring."
In the end it outputs:

information)</usr/share/texmf-texlive/f

Output written on juhtolv_tolle_harjoitukset.pdf (10 pages, 108100
bytes).
Transcript written on juhtolv_tolle_harjoitukset.log.
Then watch that PDF-file you got with any PDF-viewer you like.
Scandinavian characters (ÅÄÖåäö) are missing!
Adding those flags "--recode" and "--recode-from=utf8" to texi2pdf do
not help at all.
