Description Bertrand Delacretaz 2006-09-11 14:00:11 UTC 
FOP does not currently generate a ToUnicode table in the output PDF, this must
be corrected to have correct encodings in PDF.

Without this, cut and paste from PDF is not correct, and search fails with
non-ASCII characters.

The current situation is correctly documented at
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/trunk/fonts.html, under "TrueType font metrics".

A patch has been provided (bug #5335, comment #9) but apparently the code comes
from the FOray project, see if they agree to donate this code.
Comment 1 Bertrand Delacretaz 2006-09-15 15:41:37 UTC 
PDFEncodingTestCase added, DISABLED_testPDFEncodingWithCustomFont demonstrates
the problem.
Comment 2 Bertrand Delacretaz 2007-04-09 02:19:20 UTC 
Fixed in bug #5335
