  Subject: Problem when creating the PDF with Korean characters
danny1370   PostPosted: 11 Aug 2010, 10:51 
Hi,
Following the guide as in pd4ml-html-css-pdf-tips-tricks-f7/ttf-embedding-t42.html,
I converted the Korean HTML test string to PDF using PD4ML. By the way, the output had question marks with not properly converted.
The character set was UTF-8.
I performed as follows:

1. Inserted ttf font files in the created folder "/fonts" under /WEB-INF/lib/.
2. Run java -jar pd4ml_demo.jar -configure.fonts /fonts. Then pd4font.properties was created.
3. In my JSP file, I entered like this:
<pd4ml:usettf from="/fonts" />

<font face="Batang">테스트</font><br>
<font face="Dotum">헬로우</font><br>

It was not executable so I zipped the fonts folder into jar, placed it in the lib folder, and entered as follows:
<pd4ml:usettf from="java:fonts" serif="Dotum" sansserif="Dotum" monospace="Dotum" />

I run it again, the output was not proper.

<pd4ml:usettf from="java:fonts" serif="Dotum" sansserif="Dotum" monospace="Dotum" /> assumes the fonts are in fonts/ directory of the JAR. If the JAR has no internal directory structure, try <pd4ml:usettf from="java:" serif="Dotum" sansserif="Dotum" monospace="Dotum" />

But I would recommend to start from a creation of a font directory not relative to /WEB-INF/lib (it does not work that way), but absolute to the file system. defug="true" of <pd4ml:transform> should help you to identify the font loading problems.

I am following your order, but the same problem happened.
I am in a hurry. If this tool is ok, I wanna purchase it.
Please help me.
For reference, my code is as follows:

<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/tlds/pd4ml.tld" prefix="pd4ml" %>
<%@page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8" %>

<pd4ml:transform
screenWidth="400"
pageFormat="A4"
pageOrientation="portrait"
pageInsets="15,15,15,15,mm"
inline="true"
debug="true"
>
<!--
TODO:
1. adjust fonts directory below.
2. make sure that the directory contains pd4fonts.properties file
3. for more info see PD4ML.useTTF( String, boolean ) Java API docs
-->
<pd4ml:usettf from="c:\fonts" serif="Dotum" sansserif="Dotum" monospace="Dotum" />
<html>
<head>

Thanks.
I found the error reason. Actually, I copied the font directory but now I regenerated the font file, compiled it, and it looks fine.
