[OS X TeX] bug with the cyrillic fonts

[juan tolosa]

One baffling thing I noticed, though, is that if, after typesetting, I change the encoding back to the default
Roman (Mac OS Roman), then the original .tex file that you sent me gets totally corrupted!

Maybe this is as it should be?

And I had to remove the "emptyset" symbol as well, otherwise the typesetter complained. I did typeset in LaTeX, by the way, just in case, but it didn't help. I attach the pdf and the log files.

When you change the input encoding in TS' preferences, I am not sure how it affects previously existing source files or any material pasted into those.  But if you made a new file after changing the preference, that probably can't be it.  One way to make sure is to open the source file from TextEdit while selecting UTF-8 plain text encoding (File —> Open -> select UTF-8 in the dropdown list) and verifying it looks as intended.
