Hi,
I try to convert XML file to PDF and content of XML file is UTF-8 using
Java and itext library.
Environment - Windows XP/Windows 2003
I prepared PDF file in Adobe LiteCycle Designer as Adobe form, added
fields, set them as ready only.
I used the sample of itext code to stamp content in the PDF file and
everything worked fine.
When I tried to do the same with Japanese characters, I got issues.
1. I used Arial font in the field, the code ran fine but content is not
displayed.
2. I modified the code and added
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont("c:\\windows\\fonts\\msgothic.ttc,1",
BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
or
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont("c:/windows/fonts/arialuni.ttf",
BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
(both fonts are present),
and
form1.setFieldProperty("who", "textfont", bf, null);
form1.setField("who", nodeValue);
the result - Japanese characters are not displayed.
3. I modified Adobe form and select Arial Uni or MS Gothic fonts but the
code fails , sending Document exception
Font 'KozMinPro-Regular' with 'UniJIS-UCS2-H' is not recognized..
Font 'HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium' with 'UniKS-UCS2-H' is not recognized..
4. I modified Adobe form and select Helvetica font - the code works
but Japanese characters are not displayed.
If there is no solution for this situation, I will create PDF file during
XML conversion if using stamping is issue.
Thanks,
Leonid Ziskind
