Dear All,
Thanks in advance for the help.
We are facing an issue with Arabic characters when using Podofo library to draw
it in PDF file.
The characters are not joined together in the output pdf file.
Below is the code that we have implemented to draw Arabic characters in PDF
file.
Attached the expected output and actual output snapshots.
Kindly let us know whether any other settings needs to be enabled or should we
use any other API.
...
pFont = document->CreateFont("Arabic Typesetting", false, false, false,
PdfEncodingFactory::GlobalIdentityEncodingInstance(),
PoDoFo::PdfFontCache::eFontCreationFlags_None);
painter.SetFont(pFont);
...
wstring ar = L"ابناء الشيخ";
std::reverse(ar.begin(), ar.end());
PdfString str1( ar.c_str() );
PdfString pString = str1.ToUnicode();
painter.AddText(pString, pString.GetCharacterLength());
...
Below are our observations regarding this issue.
1. Value of “pString” in the below line contains individual characters of the
Arabic string “ar”.
“PdfString pString = str1.ToUnicode();”
2. When “pString” is passed to “AddText” api, the output string written to PDF
document is not joined together.
Kindly refer to the attached expected output and actual output screenshots.
Regards,
Anand.
