Description

Accented letters produced in notebook by command like this 

%latex
ěščřžýáíéďĎ

produce letters composed from two objects - letter and accent - and this does not look good in some cases, especially the letter ď. The solution is to use correct fonts in LaTeX.

Works as advertised in the notebook. Note that executing 

sage: view(s = u"ěščřžýáíéďĎ")

from the command line doesn't work at all, and I can't figure out how to fix it. I can get it not to throw an error -- see the experimental patch. I think that the command to write the LaTeX file (in the definition of the view function) should be something like 

codecs.open(tex_file, mode='w', encoding='utf_8').write(s)

but this garbles the string s. Anyway, this belongs on another ticket.

Out of curiosity: Do other font encodings ever conflict with T1? Other alphabets may require a different one, e.g., for 

%latex
Теория чисел

one can use 

sage.misc.latex.latex.extra_preamble('\\usepackage[T2A]{fontenc}')
