If so, where can I find documentation on this? Take a look at the font and enco files. Also at lang-ger.tex (look for languagespecifics. Several things are supported. Any suggestions welcome. Normally I tend to use \"e but direct composed characters are also used, see enco-ibm/win for examples. (\useencoding[ibm] for instance). In german (de) mode, "e etc is also supported. See language specifics section in lang-ger. There is a rather advanced mechsnism for defining your own composed stuff, see supp-lan for details. Most recently I made pdfdocencoding accept "e and alike too. I'm still working on this encoding (needed for sanitizing bookmarks). Next week I'll mail you the updated chapter on fonts and languages. Remind me.
