I'm running on a Mac and have a cyrillic font installed at
/sw/lib/X11/fonts/applettf/CharcoalCY.ttf. Here's some code:
my $p =3D PDF::API2->new();
my $page =3D $p->page();
$page->mediabox("LETTER");
$p->addFontDirs("/sw/lib/X11/fonts/applettf");
my %font =3D (
Helvetica =3D> {
Bold =3D> $p->corefont( 'Helvetica-Bold',
-encoding =3D> 'latin1' ),
Roman =3D> $p->corefont( 'Helvetica',
-encoding =3D> 'latin1' ),
Italic =3D> $p->corefont( 'Helvetica-Oblique',
-encoding =3D> 'latin1' ),
},
Times =3D> {
Bold =3D> $p->corefont( 'Times-Bold',
-encoding =3D> 'latin1' ),
Roman =3D> $p->corefont( 'Times',
-encoding =3D> 'latin1' ),
Italic =3D> $p->corefont( 'Times-Italic',
-encoding =3D> 'latin1' ),
},
Cyrillic =3D> {
Bold =3D> $p->ttfont('CharcoalCY.ttf', -encoding
=3D> 'unicode' ),
},
);
my $texthandler =3D $page->text();
$texthandler->font($font{'Cyrillic'}{'Bold'}, 12 /pt);
$texthandler->fillcolor("black");
$texthandler->translate(0.5/in, 10.25/in);
$texthandler->text("=D0=9A=D0=98=D0=A0=D0=98=D0=9B=D0=9B=D0=98=D0=A6=
=D0=90 =D0=BA=D0=B8=D1=80=D0=B8=D0=BB=D0=BB=D0=B8=D1=86=D0=B0");
However, when I generate the PDF, I don't see the cyrillic letters, I
just see garbage, as if the string being drawn were going to latin1
code points instead of being treated as UTF-8. Is PDF::API2 not
unicode aware?
