Hello,
my application transforms text generated by a host application in pdf.
The text file contains special characters for the euro sign and german
umlauts for the printer. After reading a line I convert the special
characters, this works well in Windows.
But my application should run under Linux and there all this special
characters are shown as '-' in the pdf-file.
String str2 = str.replace('\u00bf', '�'); didn't work
String str2 = str.replace('\u00bf', '\u00e4'); // ae didn't work also
Has anybody experience with umlauts?
What font are you using? What about the encoding?
This is an example with the euro sign and some characters with umlauts:
