[Tikzdevice-bugs] problems with accents

[Charlie Sharpsteen]

Hi Jacques,

Sorry for not responding sooner---I have been busy lately.

Your example works fine for me on OS X and Linux, but fails as you describe 
on Windows 7 with R 2.14.0 and tikzDevice 0.6.1. I suspect this may be an R 
issue as there are reports of UTF-8 character being sensitive to the locale 
on windows:

Hope this helps!
