I am using PDFGrid for data display and would like to display Chinese characters along with English text. I found that using PDFTrueTypeFont the Chinese characters are not shown while using PdfCjkStandardFont would make the English text messed up, e.g.
Here is the code snippet for the above PDF:
private static void _createPDF(string filename)
{
var pdf = new PdfDocument();
var page = pdf.Pages.Add();
var table = new PdfGrid();
table.Columns.Add(2);
var font1 = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("Arial", 14f), true);
var font2 = new PdfCjkStandardFont(PdfCjkFontFamily.HeiseiMinchoW3, 14f);
_addTestContent(table, "One Two Three").Style.Font = font1;
_addTestContent(table, "One Two Three").Style.Font = font2;
_addTestContent(table, "一二三").Style.Font = font1;
_addTestContent(table, "一二三").Style.Font = font2;
_addTestContent(table, "One Two Three 一二三").Style.Font = font1;
_addTestContent(table, "One Two Three 一二三").Style.Font = font2;
table.Draw(page, new PointF(0f, 0f));
using (var f = new FileStream(filename, FileMode.Create))
{
pdf.Save(f);
}
}
private static PdfGridRow _addTestContent(PdfGrid table, string value)
{
var row = table.Rows.Add();
row.Cells[0].Value = table.Rows.Count().ToString();
row.Cells[1].Value = value;
return row;
}
Also I would like to know if it is possible to embed the CJK font used in the PDF file?
