How to create correctly PDF report containing Russian symbols with font embeding? I have taken Type1 font which including Russian symbols and installed it with use of applet "Fonts" in Control Panel.
I use only this font in my report and I see Russian symbols with this font in Report Preview. When I have set up font embeding with uifont.ali and have started report with iDS OC4J. Font embedding is work and English chars shown normally. But Russian symbols shown as squares.
Next I have created MS Word file with symbols in this font and have created pdf file from MS Word file with PDFMaker. In PDFMaker I have set Embed all fonts option on for font embedding. It have create file and I can see Russian symbols!
Comparing this two files I have found that in first file Encoding for embeded font is set to Ansi, and in second for Custom(I use Acrobat Reader 6.0). In this the reason as it seems to me.
Please help me to solve this problem!
My platform is Windows 2000. NLS_LANG = RUSSIAN_CIS.CL8MSWIN1251.
