Making international characters searchable in LaTeX documents

By default LaTeX generates some international characters in a weird way when building a PDF and so on. For example, the norwegian Å will be represented as ˚A, and thus making any word containing the letter impossible to find when searching for it. This can be solved by using the package fontenc, with the parameter T1 like this:

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

Now everything (at least for norwegian documents) should be working as expected.
