characters
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1452?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Plimmer Keen updated PDFBOX-1452:
----------------------------------
Summary: Greek Pdfs print out wrong characters (was: Greek Pdf Printing Problem)
> Greek Pdfs print out wrong characters
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-1452
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1452
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.7.1, 1.8.0
> Environment: windows 7, Windows Vista
> Reporter: Plimmer Keen
> Labels: bug, greek, pi, print, silent
> Attachments: test4.pdf
>
>
> This issue resembles the PDFBOX-770 bug which was fixed in version 1.5.0, however in case of PDFBOX-770 problem occurred while extracting the text, in my case
> I have the same problem but while printing (silent print).
> E.G. in Greek PDF
> a) Greek letter π is printed as pi. "προσώπων" would become "piροσώpiων" on paper.
> b) The Greek letter μ is printed as µ ... which is slightly different on paper as the proper μ.
> c) I think there is also an issue with Ω...but I will confirm this later.
> As an example PDF ..the same pdf as in case of PDFBOX-770 can be used. Unfortunately I cannot post the results as results are on paper...
> So, I cannot print any Greek PDF, as it comes out unreadable...
> Please address the issue, a fix might be somehow similar to 770's fix..though I couldn't find any reference what was the problem then in a first place...
> Thanks in advance...
> P.K.
