Re: Pdf font encode

Which class are you using?
TPDFCanvas, or the VCL TCanvas class?

You have Unicode methods in TPDFCanvas.
For the VCL TCanvas, you can use directly the Windows Unicode APIs, just like with any VCL drawing.

I use the following :

pdfDoc.Canvas.SetFont('Arial', 10,[]);
pdfDoc.Canvas.TextOutW(10, 10, 'abc');

Thanks!

Re: Pdf font encode

TextOutW() will use Unicode, and encode them as expected.
