Hi,
I am trying to create PDFs in languages such as Chinese and Russian but the
characters of those languages are not being printed correctly.
This code outputs the attached PDF.
I read it has something to do with PDF not supporting UTF-8, I tried to use a
font which had those characters but it didn’t work.
String text = "ру́сский язы́к, ру́сский язы́к, ру́сский язы́к";
PDDocument document = new PDDocument();
PDPage page = new PDPage();
document.addPage(page);
PDFont font = PDType1Font.HELVETICA_BOLD;
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream( document, page);
contentStream.beginText();
contentStream.setFont(font, 12);
contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount(100, 700);
contentStream.drawString(text);
contentStream.endText();
contentStream.close();
document.save("Hello World.pdf");
document.close();
Does PDFBox supports printing this type of characters ? How can this be done ?
Thanks in advance!
Felipe
