Problem with converted PDF from OTF

Former Member

Hello,

im having a problem with character interpretation in PDF document when i convert it from OTF.

At the moment im using Arial true type font in my smartform, im using function module CONVERT_OTF to convert OTF to PDF.

When i open PDF document with Adobe reader it looks fine, but the problem is when im trying to convert PDF file to other format for example PNG, or trying to copy and paste text from PDF document.

im getting Klaipìda instead of Klaipėda, it seems that baltic symbol "ė" is interpreted like "ì", other baltic symbols are interpreted as they should, there is problem only with character "ė".

have anyone faced that kindof problem? or maybe anyone know the solution for this problem? if so please tell me.

Best regards,

Rimantas Sebeckis.

Hi Rimantus,

Did you check the fonts installed in your system,,,

As PDF is a unchangeable format, it doesnt depend upon the installed fonts in the system,,

but when you copy, you need some fonts in system,, if not you will get the same problem,,,

Thanks & regards,

Thank you for the reply,

I have imported same Arial font into SAP system that is in my PC, and by the way im embedding fonts into PDF, so i think it shouldnt be a problem.
