Exporting reports which include user defined characters

Post by ChristianH »

I´ve created some user defined characters with Windows tool "eudcedit". Doing this a file called eudc.tte is created and placed in the Windows - \fonts - folder (hidden). Such characters can be inserted to the reports easily via unicode or with copy/paste from the "charmap".

Only problem is, that after exporting it with the ExportDocument method to PDF these charakters are replaced by some other symbols.

Inserting the user defined symbols in Winword and exporting to PDF with Acrobat Writer works fine!

Sorry, but in .Net it is very difficult to get detailed information about specific type of the font. So WinGDI doesn't allow to get the font data and include this font-specific information inside the pdf file.

Thank you.
