[Ultimate PDF] [ODC] Unable to use Japanese charactors
ultimate-pdf
Reactive icon
Forge asset by Leonardo Fernandes
Application Type
Reactive

In ODC App, it is unable to use Japanese charactors in Ultimated PDF library.

It is okay to export the docs but only Japanese charctors skipped and disapear.

Does the module support ODC? or do you have any solutions to avoid this problems

Hi Tetsuo,

The ODC version of the Ultimate PDF was built by a different team.

Regarding the issue reported there is a limitation in the external logic used in this component on ODC where the chromium we use only has access to the font Open Sans, that doesn’t have japanese characters.

With css you can import the fonts needed for the PDF. Code to support this workaround was submitted to forge at version 1.1.0.

Kind regards,

Hi team,

I could reproduce this issue. Does Ultimate PDF support Japanese characters?

Whether this question is for ODC version, but ODC forge does not have some support forums.

Kind Regards,

For anyone who is new, Ultimate PDF has a SetDocumentFont client action that help you to specify Japanese font shown on.
