I'm currently trying to include a pdf file with pdfpages, but the file has some accented characters.

Let's say for example the filename is "éte.pdf". Both tries below give an error

\includepdf{"éte.pdf"}
\includepdf{"\'{e}te.pdf"}

The only way I found to go around this is to rename the file to remove the accent, but the file is generated autamatically by another software which I can't change, so I would have to rename everytime I created the pdf.

Using includegraphics{éte.pdf} works fine but it wont make the entire page.

Is there a way to make pdfpages accept the original file name?

Please post a full MWE, together with any error messages you are receiving. Accented characters work just fine for me. – Ingmar Jun 13 '22 at 10:45
Are you using PDFLaTeX/XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX? Are you on Windows/Mac/something else? – user202729 Jun 13 '22 at 10:54
Also, you probably should not be including the quotes "...? – user202729 Jun 13 '22 at 10:54
