Hey,

if you really need a fallback you need to install that font on the PC you are working on first. You could, for example, use a "unicode complete font" like Arial unicode or whatever's out there.

Then you can do the "getGlyphWidth" trick (which Zyx talked about in his mail) and decide wether or not you want to use your fallback font.

Podofo itself can not (and should not) do that substitution, because podofo relies on the installed font from the system its currently working on.

Greetz,

Dennis

Hi All

As per the current behavior, if I draw text( say for some Japanese string) using a font which doesn’t have glyphs for the characters in the string(eg: Times New Roman), blanks or squares will be displayed.
This is ok.

But I would like to know if it’s possible to have a fall back font mechanism to display the string correctly with current podofo( even if it is not very direct)

(I would like to use some fall back font if the desired font doesn’t have to glyphs for the characters in the string, and only for these characters. If the text is mixed English and Japanese, and I am using Time New Roman to display the text, the English characters should be displayed with times new roman and Japanese characters should use the fall back font)

Any hint will be helpful

Thanks and Regards

Ali
