[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-490) Pdf Printing of text from embedded fonts

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-490?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13503991#comment-13503991 ] 

Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-490:
-------------------------------------------

I added a workaround in revision 1413782. It solves the issue with the attached file, BUT it doesn't work in every case. It uses the new TTFSubfont support of fontbox (see PDFBOX-922) to rebuild the embedded font. It is limited to WinANSI fonts which doesn't contain a naming table. I guess it'll be easy to integrate Juraj idea about rebuilding a missing cmap table.

> When printing from utility PrintPdf, text is rendered in the wrong typeface. The correct typeface is embedded within the PDF (Embedded Subset) as a TrueType font with an ANSI encoding. It may be noted that the AcroFields in a Courier typeface render correctly.
