Change Font Subsets

Mon, 2010-05-31 15:11 — Biga

Any idea how can I change TrueType subsets?

I need some special south-slav characters, for example capital C with caron but if I use Arial font with PDF include, I see only the basic subset. If I check Arial font in Word (Insert symbol) I see this character in Subset "Extended Latin A".

thanks,
Biga

p.s. I tried create new AFM file with TT2PT1 utility and use -l (language) switch but did not work. (there is latin1,2,4,5 options but no extended latin A,B...)

Use built-in Helvetica

The way I do it is using pdf built-in helvetica font, with the new codepage functionnalities of pdfinclude (needs svn version), and I get the Ccaron or other strange characters ;-) I even do cyrillic that way.
I do not know how to do it using external fonts, I think this would need an evolution of pdfinclude.
