Luca Bellonda commented on FOP-3292:
------------------------------------
Hello,
the PDF 1.4 specification in paragraph 3.2.4 states that bytes of names
after expansion can be treated as UTF-8 values, so I believe it is legal to
encode the name by getting the bytes from the name string with UTF-8 encoding
and encoding the non-ASCII character using the # notation.
{quote}“In such situations, it is recommended that the sequence of bytes (after
expansion
of # sequences, if any) be interpreted according to UTF-8, a variable-length
byte-
encoded representation of Unicode in which the printable ASCII characters have
the same representations as in ASCII. “
{quote}
Best regards.
