  Protected vCharWidth,vDefault,vStyle,vFound,Font,hDC,Mem,Len,j, fontNS$
  
  AddElement(Fonts())
  Fonts()\FontN = ListSize(Fonts())
  Fonts()\FontKey$ = FontKey$
  Fonts()\Style$ = Style$
  vDefault = #False
  
  fontNS$=UCase(FontName$+Style$)         
  Select fontNS$
    Case "COURIER"
      Fonts()\Name$ = #PDF_FONT_COURIER
      vDefault = #True
    Case "COURIERB"
      Fonts()\Name$ = #PDF_FONT_COURIERB
      vDefault = #True
    Case "COURIERI"
      Fonts()\Name$ = #PDF_FONT_COURIERI
      vDefault = #True
    Case "s"
      Fonts()\Name$ = "s"
      Restore s
    Default ; Font is unknown = Font embedding
      CompilerIf #PB_Compiler_OS=#PB_OS_Windows
        vDefault = 3
      CompilerElse

There is no need to modify "purePDF.pb"

in the examples folder look at "Tutorial22 Font.pb"

Code: Select all

pdf_SetFont("Tahoma","",12)

but instead use a font that has the characters you want, in windows 10 I have:

Code: Select all

pdf_SetFont("Microsoft YaHei","",12)

also take a look at "Tutorial32 Unicode.pb" to see how to use the characters
and look a the last page of the purePDF 2.0 thread for some warnings

Adobe Reader does not support all fonts, embedded in the PDF or not, so you have to use the fonts it does support. For Chinese, Microsoft Sans Serif is supported (micross.ttf)
