Hi all!

I have a very basic question which occupies me for more than a week now: 
How to setup documents for german language properly, such that:

1. the used input encoding is ISO-8859-1,
2. german special character are available, and
3. german hyphenation patterns are used.

The setup shown below does not work: TeX is not able to hyphenate 
"Änderungsabnahme" and the \quotedblbase symbol is broader than its 
counterpart the \quotedblleft symbol.

Thanks for your attention and help,
--Stefan
