Re: Unicode codepoint conversions
Get the code from
https://gist.github.com/cdokolas/8845724f8f4c0335dadfbc6f0c6afe0b
There is also a resulting PDF having a "ToUnicode" object that has the
"different" codepoints, but I don't know how to send it to you.
Note that the font I'm using is Noto Sans CJK ("NotoSansCJKsc-Regular"),
loaded from a resource.
Thanks in advance,
Constantine

Unicode codepoint conversions
I noticed that writing some codepoints to a PDF and then reading back the text from the generated PDF (via PDFTextStripper), I see some conversions happening. For example, the simple hyphen character (0x2D, "HYPHEN-MINUS") gets converted to a non-breaking hyphen (0x2011, "NON-BREAKING HYPHEN"). Since I'm writing unit tests to verify that everything gets written correctly in the PDF from my end (PDF generation), I need to know why, when and how these conversions take place (I first noticed them while writing some CJK codepoints). Any suggestions/pointers? Constantine -- There is a computer disease that anybody who works with computers knows about. It's a very serious disease and it interferes completely with the work.
