After adding a new chapter, now I've just come across a new trouble: accents.

The odd thing is that other chapters are just fine, no problem whatsoever.

I use :

\usepackage[italian]{babel}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{color}

What I get now (within the new chapter only) is that the à is A with a tilde symbol.

What should I do? thanks

The new chapter has been saved UTF-8 encoded instead of Latin-1. Output with à is a clear symptom of this disease. – egreg Feb 2 at 23:40
Right...that's correct..the problem is that I didn't anything in order to save it in UTF-8.. – user1990170 Feb 2 at 23:45
Did you edit it on the same machine with the same editor? – egreg Feb 2 at 23:46
I created a new .txt file then I wrote some lines and renamed it to ca_5.tex. I tried to compile and surprisingly the previous chapter are fine but the new one is a mess.I must be going crazy..I need to finish the job by tomorrow and I'm very late.. – user1990170 Feb 2 at 23:52
Problem solved...it was just as you said..Thanks – user1990170 Feb 3 at 0:08
