Re: [Swftools-common] Special Characters (Umlaut, copyright symbol, etc) are missing on SWF output

[Hans J Nuecke]

Hi,
I just yesterday converted a PDF with umlaut with the 0.91 version on windows with no problems (http://vservu.de/mz3demo/index-Schaukel.html#/2).
The 0.90 before reported in several files many errors, but 0.91 works better for me now; on Windows7 64Bit and with these settings:

-q -t -T 9 -s internallinkfunction=megazine.PDFlinkHandler -j40 -s zoom=36 -G -p %%i -f "%pdf_path%%pdf_name%" "%book_path%%lo_res_path%%%i.swf
and
-q -t -T 9 -s internallinkfunction=megazine.PDFlinkHandler -j90 -s zoom=92 -G -p %%i -f "%pdf_path%%pdf_name%" "%book_path%%lo_res_path%%%i.swf

A bit different, and you could try with those. But I do not expect that makes the difference (haven't tested your switches, though)

Good luck
Hans

Hello,

I have a PDF that I am trying to convert with pdf2swf (090 and 091 windows) and it seems that all of the words with special characters (umlaut, copyright symbol, etc) disappear from the output SWF.

This is a German language PDF.

The string that I am using is

pdf2swf -f -s zoom=93 -T 9 file.pdf -o file.swf

Here is a screenshot of the PDF and resulting SWF

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Thanks
