    I just used abiword to convert a doc file (yuck) into a couple of
    different formats for viewing, including latex.

    I run with:

    LANG=en_US.UTF-8
    LC_COLLATE=C
    LC_TIME=C

    abi created the latex file with \usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
    but included the char ’ (U+2019 SINGLE COMMA QUOTATION MARK)
    in utf8.

    Although it could have specified [cp1252]{inputenc} and used the
    codepoint in that encoding for the ’ (0x92), it would have been
    best to just use an ascii ' at that spot, as TeX does the right
    thing in that case.

    Similarly, ” should be represented as '', ‘ as `, “ as ``, etc.
