-<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label t1enc</title>

-<h3>Why use <i>fontenc</i> rather than <i>t1enc</i>?</h3>
-<p/>In the very earliest days of LaTeX2e, the only way to use the
-T1 encoding was <i>t1enc</i>; with the summer 1994
-&#8220;production&#8221; release, the <i>fontenc</i> package appeared, and
-provided comprehensive support for use of the encoding.
-<p/>Nevertheless, the <i>t1enc</i> package remains (as part of the
-LaTeX 2.09 compatibility code), but it does very little: it merely
-selects font encoding T1, and leaves to the user the business
-of generating the character codes required.
-<p/>Generating such character codes could be a simple matter, <em>if</em>
-the T1 encoding matched any widely-supported encoding standard,
-since in that case, one might expect one&#8217;s keyboard to generate the
-character codes. However, the T1 encoding is a mix of several
-standard encodings, and includes code points in areas of the table
-which standard encodings specifically exclude, so no T1
-keyboards have been (or ever will be) manufactured.
-<p/>By contrast, the <i>fontenc</i> package generates the T1
-code points from ordinary LaTeX commands (e.g., it generates the
-<code>&#233;</code> character codepoint from the command <code>\&#8217;</code><code>e</code>). So, unless you
-have program-generated T1 input, use
-<code>\</code><code>usepackage[T1]{fontenc}</code> rather than
-<code>\</code><code>usepackage{t1enc}</code>.
