Hello Bruno, Sorry I had sent the earlier mail just to your private id.
I tried to print the following data using the japanese font below and iText prints as shown below クレーム合計 but the unicode equivalent of the above string \u30AF\u30EC\u30FC\u30E0\u5408\u8A08 is getting printed properly in japanese by iText. I thought ASCII is an subset of UNICODE ..but this issue is bugging me a lot.. My DB access gives me only characters of the type クレーム合計 Kindly let me know if there is a way to overcome this problem Your help is highly appreciated!
