Essential PDF also has support for all the True Type fonts. Unicode TrueType fonts created from System.Drawing.Font can be used for RTL text output.

Fonts created from a font definition (.ttf) file can be embedded within the generated PDF document so that the document can be viewed in the client machine even if that font is not installed there.

Languages with symbols substitution (like Arabic) are also supported.

Essential PDF has support for CJK fonts. These fonts are used to render Top Down languages such as Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
