Now it couldn't display the symbol № outside of forms (small problem but
annoying)…
I have tried this but it created more problems:
bf = BaseFont.CreateFont(UnicodeFont, "CP1253",
BaseFont.EMBEDDED); // Selecting Greek code-page is needed, because
IDENTITY_H doesn't select the correct code-page.
bf.AddSubsetRange(new int[]{0x2018, 0x2265}); //
Lets include some useful symbols. <--------------------------------
bf.Subset = false; // This will force the embedding
of the whole font file.
bf.CompressionLevel = 9; //the compression level (0
= best speed, 9 = best compression, -1 is default)
setSubset
public void setSubset(boolean subset)
Indicates if all the glyphs and widths for
that particular encoding should be included in the document. When set to
true only the glyphs used will be included in the font. When set to false
and addSubsetRange(int[]) was not called the full font will be included
otherwise just the characters ranges will be included.
Finally, I used "CP1253" for forms and Identity_H for the document body.
I would expect everything to work fine with only one of them, without the
document place (body or field) to play any role, but it seems things are
more complicated… :-(

OK, people!
Here is what was wrong:
Changing this:
var bf = BaseFont.CreateFont(UnicodeFontPath, BaseFont.IDENTITY_H,
BaseFont.EMBEDDED); ..into this:
var bf = BaseFont.CreateFont(UnicodeFontPath, "CP1253", BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
..solved the problem. Apparently, IDENTITY_H selects the code-page that it
THINKS is appropriate and doesn't embed all code-pages...
Now, with the Greek code-page selected, the field supports both Greek and
English!
(Can someone explain to me why " BaseFont .IDENTITY_H", " BaseFont .CP****"
and the rest of the enumerable values are not implemented with enumerations?
I think that would make your LIB way more easy to use.)
