Printing '#' instead of special character in PDF.

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have made a smartforms and i am converting it into PDF and sending to the customer through mail attachment.

I am sending the PDF in customer language.

I have used text module for translation into customer language.

But some special charater are printed as ' # '.

For Example:-

For language slovakia(SK).

' Customer ' is translated as ' Číslo odberateľa '.

But while downloading the PDF attachment instead of ' Číslo odberateľa ' it is printing as #íslo odberateľa.

Any sollution for this.

Hi

Check whether ur ADOBE is capable of displaying language slovakia(SK) ok if not upgrade ur ADOBE..

its basically a ADOBE compatablity issue (even i have faced the same issue with japanese text)

Check with ur Technical team for it...

Hi ,

I suppose the prnting device must be configured with respect to the language used in the form.

Please check the fonts installed on your Adobe machine. Also try another font to use (Myriad Pro helped me with this problem for Russian language). Good luck, Otto
