This is not an encoding problem. Well, it is but not with iText. Both the "oe" and "..." exist in the built in fonts with winansi encoding that you are using. This leads me to believe that you are not receiving correctly the chars from the web form or if the chars are correct the encoding is not the right one when going from bytes (what you receive in the wire from the browser) to chars (Unicode).

Subject: [iText-questions] Other characters not displayed in PDF

Hi all
 
I've got a problem with some specials characters. We've got a web-application where the users fill forms with a lot of 'copy-cut' from Ms-Word. We want to display it under a Pdf format with Itext. The problem is that the char " ’ " is not displayed, there's a space instead. We've got the same problem with "œ" and "…" .
 
In our class, we use a standard font :   
 
Font black = new Font(Font.TIMES_ROMAN, 9, Font.NORMAL, new Color(00,00,00));
 
Have you ever been in this case? Do you have some idea to solve this problem?
 
Thanks in advance
 
Greetings from Paris

Ps I've tried to solve it as it's said in the answer posted today named "RE: latin2 characters in PDF", but it's doesn't work.
