hi,

Pdf's generated with special chars like  č, š, ž, č  are not generated as regular fonts but as images.

i'm interested to resolve this because pdf's generated this way has visible difference on specific chars and also file size is increased because spec fonts.

Remembering this issue from old adempiere times, and wondering how idempiere is ready to resolve this.

i would be appreciated with any relevant help.

we are using version 3.0

maybe a shot in the dark, but could this be related to fonts?  i.e. look at this ticket and its workaround:
https://idempiere.atlassian.net/browse/IDEMPIERE-1512

Hi Norbert, Hope you are resolved your issue.
but i see at there has three issue.
1. as Carlos link. IDEMPIERE-1512 it's miss support font in server when generate report.
2. difference char (but in your attach file i don't see difference), 
maybe it's by your font you choose miss glyph of some character, but other font in same family has, and it use for replace.
3. some character render as sharp. it's by design of build-in report. every sentence contain character out of ansi code is render as sharp
it help resolve case miss font in client and not need embed font.

just issue-3 is must change code, maybe add a user preference for choose between: 
+ render normal, client will install miss font
+ embed font
+ same as current design

hi,

I made some tests. doesn't make any font installation and change in print format. always - as heiplq state - if any other then ansi char included then immediately converted to image. difference visible  in client reader. you can see in attachment properties from adobe pdf reader. still doesn't understand helvetica why embedded :)
