Hello, I'm having problems drawing japanese (and russian, arabic, etc) 
characters when trying to draw a FreeText annotation using PdfPainter

This is the code I'm using

font = document->CreateFont("Helvetica");
font->SetFontSize(15);
painter.SetColor(0, 0, 0);

pdf_utf8 *utf8 = (unsigned char *)"こんばんは";
painter.DrawText(xOffset, yOffset, PdfString(utf8));


This works well with regular characters, but the foreign ones are not displayed


I stumbled into
// TODO: Unicode and Hex not yet supported
on PdfFontType1.cpp, void PdfFontType1::AddUsedSubsettingGlyphs( const 
PdfString & sText, long lStringLen )

Is there any plans on doing this in the near future? Is there a workaround to 
be able to draw these glyphs?
