Description

Hi,

how is it possible to create a fallback for languages that aren’t supported by the used PDFont by using a font stack similar to this: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif

 

I want to render normal latin characters and chinese, japanese and other asian characters.

Is there an open soure font which contains all these characters like the arial-unicode-ms?

Regards

Jürgen
