Perfect answer! Clear explanation, and the remedy already built into XML Mind ... thanks.
I'm fairly sure you'd already explained this to me once; perhaps a note under http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/xsltParams.html would save you having to answer this question again?

By default, PDF just knows about its 14 standard fonts (Helvetica, Times, Courier, etc) and Arial is not one of these PDF fonts. Please refer to this FAQ which also applies to your case: --- When I convert documents written in Russian (or Polish or Czech or any non-western language) to PDF, almost all characters are replaced by the "#" character. Is there a workaround for this problem? --- http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/faq.html#custom_pdf_fonts which points to: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/addonOptions.html#fopOptions Worldline SA/NV - Chaussee de Haecht 1442 Haachtsesteenweg - 1130 Brussels - Belgium RPM-RPR Bruxelles-Brussel - TVA-BTW BE 0418.547.872 Bankrekening-Compte Bancaire-Bank Account 310-0269424-44 BIC BBRUBEBB - IBAN BE55 3100 2694 2444 "The information contained in this e-mail and any attachment there to be confidential and may contain information which is protected by intellectual property rights.
