I have a Mac OS X application that I build with RB 5.5.5 which a
potential customer in Croatia just pointed out to me does not properly
print some characters in Croatian. Instead of single characters for
some non-ASCII characters, they print in two parts, or as a question
mark.
I have only tested this in Mac OS X 10.4.7.
I can see that the characters are displaying properly within RB, but
after being drawn to a graphics object from a call to
OpenPrinterDialog, they do not print properly. This has apparently
been fixed in RB 2006R3 (and possibly earlier), but I need to continue
building this application in RB 5.5.5.
If you'd like to see the problem, I have put together a small project
you can run and see it in action for yourself. You can download it at:

Does anybody have any thoughts on I might work around this problem
in RB 5.5.5?
deal is RB 5 does note use coregraphics for printing but only for
drawing
you need CG to get the automatic font substitution for a glyph not
present in the current font
only workaround for RB 5 is to make sure the font you're printing has
the correct glyph for that unicode point
