Good to know.

Only it does support that type of font. See, look. Our app renders PDF via iText... I'll pick an open type font from my system, throw some non-ascii characters in, and... Err... Crap... But but... Okay, some OT fonts work fine, some don't. Ah! "Lucida Sans", the first font I tried, has a blank "font embeddability" column in the win7 view of c:/windows/fonts. Monotype Corsiva Italic on the other hand, the one that worked, has the word "installable" instead. The only other font on my system with no font embeddability entry is... "Arial". Ouch. But Arial works given some non-ascii text. Bah! So much for that theory. "Lucida Sans" came up empty, but "Lucida Sans Unicode" was fine... And both are OpenType fonts from the same company. After further experimentation, I see no rhyme or reason here. Some OT fonts are fine. Some aren't. --Mark Storer Senior Software Engineer Cardiff.com import legalese.Disclaimer; Disclaimer<Cardiff> DisCard = null; > -----Original Message----- > From: qqzx2kp [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, October 22, 2010 2:17 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Using OpenType font with > IDENTITY_Hdoesn'twork > > > > > Mark Storer-2 wrote: > > > > Structurally, those two PDFs are identical.
