Details:

I've got myself into experimenting with groff and from the start I found out
the romanian special characters I type in vim are all fine (I ran setxkbmap
ro), but get messed up in the pdf export.

Running


groff -Tpdf -ms letext.ms > letext.pdf


instead of ășâțî ĂȘÂȚÎ I get all kinds of other special characters.

Running


groff -Kutf8 -Tpdf -ms letext.ms > letext.pdf


some of the characters I want remain, but the others disappear and I get this
message in the terminal
