Hey, you should load your fonts (whit or without umlauts) from font
files like this:
com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont gfont =
com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont.createFont(file.getPath(),
com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont.CP1250,
com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
Where file is a pointer to the font file, like : /somedir/arial.ttf
And you should change the codepage to conform to your language.
Hope it helps...

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?
