[jira] [Updated] (PDFBOX-2954) Error trying to show Spanish or
French characters with PDFBOX
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2954?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Tilman Hausherr updated PDFBOX-2954:
------------------------------------
Description:
When I create a PDF with PDFBOX 2.0.0 SNAPSHOT using the typical Hello World example with Spanish and French characters:
{code}
PDDocument document = new PDDocument();
PDPage page = new PDPage(PDRectangle.A4);
document.addPage(page);
PDType1Font font = PDType1Font.HELVETICA;
PDPageContentStream stream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page);
String text = "áÁÀà";
stream.beginText();
stream.setFont(font, 12);
stream.newLineAtOffset(100, 700);
stream.showText(text);
stream.endText();
stream.close();
document.save("sample.pdf");
document.close();
{code}
I get this error:
{code}
sep 02, 2015 12:42:43 PM org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDType1Font <init>
ADVERTENCIA: Using fallback font ArialMT for base font ZapfDingbats
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: This font type only supports 8-bit code points
{code}
If I load {{arialuni.ttf}} font with Type0 it compiles but only get question marks instead of the correct characters in the PDF file.
I have tried PDFBOX 1.8 and doesn´t work either.
