Hi,
This is not supported, sorry. PDFBox just outputs the glyphs for the
single characters and does not replace for ligatures.

Hi,
I am using pdfbox 2.0.4, and I am trying to output a pdf document with
text following devanagari text: कारणत्त्वङ्गवाश्वादीनमपीति चेत् युक्तम्.
The code is very simple:
@Test
public void testPdfBox() throws IOException {
PDDocument document = new PDDocument();
PDPage page = new PDPage();
document.addPage(page);
PDFont font = PDType0Font.load(document,
new
File("/home/claudius/workspaces/repositories/backup/fonts/Sanskrit2003.ttf"));
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new
PDPageContentStream(document, page);
contentStream.beginText();
contentStream.setFont(font, 12);
contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount(100, 700);
contentStream.showText("कारणत्त्वङ्गवाश्वादीनमपीति चेत् युक्तम्");
contentStream.endText();
// Make sure that the content stream is closed:
contentStream.close();
// Save the results and ensure that the document is properly
closed:
document.save("target/" + name.getMethodName() + ".pdf");
document.close();
}
The output pdf file (attached) is not rendering correctly the string,
as it is above. Namely, the ligatures are not displayed, as if they do
not exist. On the other hand, if I am copying the text from the pdf
file, and paste it in eclipse, it shows perfectly.
I checked the pdf output with evince, firefox, and adobe reader 9, in
ubuntu.
Any idea on how to fix this display issue?
Thanks,
Claudius
