That indeed seems to do it for the file that Constantinos is working on, once you add the babel stuff for greek. So this preamble would do it (notice the greek option in the documentclass):
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,greek]{report} % UTF-8 stuff \usepackage[notipa]{ucs} \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{textcomp} \usepackage{babel}
Indeed, this worked. I have not been able to get xetex to work with this document, but I prefer this methodology. Thanks a lot! Now the only problems I have are definitely latex-only issues... The one that confuses me and I have no idea how to approach is that the (very) few english characters I have in the document (for example in tables as variables) get transliterated into greek characters... is there any prefix I can use to make these characters appear as-is?
Add the word "english" in your list of languages:
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt,greek, english]{report}
And then:
\selectlanguage{english} Hi there! \selectlanguage{greek}
You can even mix more languages if you want ;). The corresponding chapter of the second volume of the LaTeX companion has a lot more info on this, also the babel package documentation probably has a lot more information than you would ever need:
