[jira] Updated: (MPPDF-22) Allow copy and paste from pdf to text editor

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPPDF-22?page=all ]

Lukas Theussl updated MPPDF-22:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: ttf-garabd.xml
                ttf-garait.xml
                ttf-gara.xml

I attach three font metrics files that solve this issue for me. I recreated these files from the .ttf files included in the current pdf plugin, using fop's  TTFReader with the '-enc ansi' option. From the fop documentation (http://xml.apache.org/fop/fonts.html#truetype-metrics), the WinAnsi encoding is necessary for cut-and-paste and other operations.

> Actually, we cant copy text from a PDF section and paste it in a text editor.
> But we can do it for title section or table of contents...
> Example:
> copy this title from the generated PDF: "Table of Contents"
> paste in a text editor: Table of Contents
> Correct
> copy this section from the generated PDF: "No current items"
> paste in a text editor: ".... .............. ............"
> In hexa it should be:
> 00000000h: 2E 2E 2E 2E 20 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E ; .... ...........
> 00000010h: 2E 2E 2E 20 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E 2E ; ... ............
> Thus incorrect
> Maybe a font problem...
