Does 'pdfencoding=auto' work with (pdf)latex and xelatex? I'm not sure
reading the readme page 13:
Option 'pdfencoding'
The PDF format allows two encodings for bookmarks and entries in the
information dictionary: PDFDocEncoding and Unicode as UTF-16BE. Option
"pdfencoding" selects between these encodings:
* "pdfdoc" uses PDFDocEncoding. It uses just one byte per character,
but the supported characters are limited (244 in PDF-1.7).
* "unicode" sets Unicode. It is encoded as UTF-16BE. Two bytes are
used for most characters, surrogates need four bytes.
* "auto" PDFDocEncoding if the string does not contain characters
outside the encoding and Unicode otherwise.
If the answer is yes, could the option 'unicode' be safely replaced by
'pdfencoding=auto'?
Thanks.
