Hi!

I am trying to find a solution how to create PDF file inculding
Central European fonts/characters.
I have PM 7 w. updates, Adobe Acrobat Standard 6 installed - using
Windows XP.
When I try to create PDF file - either via export or by creating PS
and then using Distiller, I get some strange characters instead of
special CE characters (e.g.: �, &#269;, &#263;). I used Arial CE,
Times CE, Curier CE, but it is all the same. I can't find any proper
solution online.

Last year we used Acrobat 5 and PM 6.5 and everything worked fine.

Thank you for any help.

Luke

i am not using pm, but this looks like non-unicode app with unicode 
font... try WGL Assistant v1.1 / The Multilingual Font Manager
http://wgl.typ.pl/

quote from their web site:
"WGL Assistant allows convenient use of the multilingual TrueType fonts 
(Unicode fonts/WGL4 fonts) in all MS Windows applications, including 
non-Unicode applications. It is suitable for use with Microsoft Windows 
95/98/ME/NT 4.0/2000."

now i am using only unicode aware apps & unicode otf's so i dont have 
that problem any more, but WGL really works fine.

regards,

vladimir
