--------------------------------------------
Summary: [PATCH] Avoid character remapping if font contains the
same character multiple times
Key: FOP-2529
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2529
Project: FOP
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: font/opentype
Reporter: Matthias Reischenbacher
When using font Meiryo for japanese PDF output, some japanese characters where
remapped, e.g. 青 (decimal unicode: 38738) was remapped to ⻘ (decimal unicode:
11992). My patch contains a changed MultiByteFont.findCharacterFromGlyphIndex()
method that tries to preserve the original character, if possible, but falls
back to the current behavior if not.
Preserving the original characters is important for a more predictable search
behavior in PDF viewers. Since the characters were remapped, searching for the
original character didn't show any results.
