Hi
With the module TeX::Encode and Encode, I convert characters from
LaTex to UTF8. It works great except for characters use in Slovacia,
for example c or z with caron: č ž

TeX::Encode use the followings modules
use Encode::Encoding;
use Pod::LaTeX;
use HTML::Entities

and from the comments in TeX::Encode "It uses the the mapping from
Pod::LaTeX, but we use HTML::Entities
to get the Unicode character".
Is there another module I should install to convert these east
european characters ?
Thanks for any advice !

Francois
