While copying and pasting from Eric's message a line disappeared. -------missed line--- Already there for PDF. It's of the form BMC <</ActualText (characters)>> (glyphs) Tj EMC ----end of missed lines--- The idea behind this construct is enble Search and Copy and Paste on complex text that do not have a one to one mapping from characters to glyphs. For such scripts, the forward mapping from n chars to m glyphs is carried out by a complicated transformation. The reverse transformation is much more complicated and the BMC..EMC construct is an alternate solution.
