Any reason you are doing this instead of one of the MANY existing PDF libraries??
that displays text in an Eastern European character set. To do this I'm defining font objects using TrueType typefaces and custom encoding arrays.
But it doesn't look like you are embedding the font. You should REALLY consider doing that, since w/o the embedded glyphs you won't get the results you expect...
This works great when the document's viewed in Acrobat 6.0.
Acrobat 6 uses a new font substitution system than earlier versions did, and as such you WILL get different results for non-embedded fonts. This is one (of the many!) reasons you need to embed.
