    How to easily add chinese text

    joeln3 Community Member

      Hello,

       

      I'm wondering how to easily add a chinese text in a PDF either using PDEText or directly using CosObj.

       

      It seems easier to add the string in a PDEText and let Acrobat do the work (I mean create the Text structure with font, ...) than create myself the font (especially with chinese text). Unfortunately I have to use the PDETextAddGlyph() to add special char (UTF16). But as it is possible to have UTF8 and UTF16 in my string (e.g. "dsfghjklm}̐ȸȣȀǑ卾ͫẄNJȠ{Ǧʱᕦ") i'm looking for a simple way to create my PDF.

       

      Trying to do that directly in the PDF I have to create a basic font (e.g. Arial) and a glyph font in my resources dict.

       

      Does someone know an easy way to add special char in a pdf?

       

      Thanks in advance,

      Joe
