Totally. Just in case, I made a specific org file to test this.

The relevant part of the source org says:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Maecenas 
a nisl ut dui placerat mattis sit amet ut justo. Phasellus 
faucibus cursus aliquet. Sed blandit mattis gravida. Maecenas 
tincidunt purus blandit sapien congue, vel molestie lacus tempor. 
Donec ut magna auctor, cursus augue id, hendrerit neque. Donec 
viverra elit venenatis ullamcorper malesuada. Etiam at tellus 
maximus, aliquam neque ut, bibendum justo. Aliquam sem nisl, 
tempus vitae placerat at, bibendum a erat. Donec tincidunt auctor 
volutpat. 

[[file:img/ProcesoDeDise%C3%B1oDeInteraccion.pdf]]

Praesent iaculis nisi interdum justo placerat, eu gravida nibh 
posuere. Fusce scelerisque, nisi ut fermentum aliquet, lorem arcu 
finibus arcu, fringilla consectetur erat purus id magna. Etiam vel 
neque id risus volutpat lacinia. Nam non lorem lectus. Ut neque 
ex, sagittis sit amet porta vitae, commodo nec urna. Integer non 
ipsum at dolor eleifend hendrerit in a mi. Vivamus pellentesque 
interdum consectetur. 
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The tex file (only the relevant part) says:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Maecenas 
a nisl ut dui placerat mattis sit amet ut justo. Phasellus 
faucibus cursus aliquet. Sed blandit mattis gravida. Maecenas 
tincidunt purus blandit sapien congue, vel molestie lacus tempor. 
Donec ut magna auctor, cursus augue id, hendrerit neque. Donec 
viverra elit venenatis ullamcorper malesuada. Etiam at tellus 
maximus, aliquam neque ut, bibendum justo. Aliquam sem nisl, 
tempus vitae placerat at, bibendum a erat. Donec tincidunt auctor 
volutpat.

The 2nd paragraph, right after the "\end{center}", is centered, 
don't know why.

So, it gets exported to the tex file. But I don't know if that 
"translation" breaks something...

Running "pdflatex TestDeLinkConCaracteresExtendidos.tex" gives 
errors but produces the pdf just as from inside Orgmode.

Now, replacing the specific chars directly in the tex file 
"/ProcesoDeDise%C3%B1oDeInteraccion.pdf" by 
"/ProcesoDeDiseñoDeInteraccion.pdf" (as it is the filename) and 
running again pdflatex gives a not found error (Package pdftex.def 
Error: File `img/ProcesoDeDise�oDeInteraccion.pdf' not found) but 
makes the pdf with a rectangle in place of the pdf diagram. So 
definitively there is something with the filename 
encoding/translation here (sorry if those words are used without 
precision, I'm far outside my domain). 

How is it supposed to be referenced a file with extended chars in 
the filename? Is the issue then with the latex to pdf part, or do 
we have to write such filenames differently?

Thanks a lot for your help and attention to this issue... :)
