Hi,
what is the difference between
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} and
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} without the x

With \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} its always wrong. As you said every  
second time in the table of content and every other time in the  
heading on page 6.

Seems odd to me. but using utf8 instead of utf8x solved the problem  
all right.

Thanks,
Ben
