Hi,
We're trying out EO.Pdf, and are very impressed. But when we tried to convert an HTML page where there are CSS rules that sets Helvetica as the font, all text becomes garbled. For example:
.RQWUROOI|UOlFNDJHDYN\ORFKYlUPHSXPSXWUXVWQLQJPHG+&)&+)&N|OGPHGLHUHQOLJW6)6

If we change to Arial, Verdana or even Geneva, it works just fine. Has anyone experienced this before? Do we need to bundle Helvetica font files?

Thanks!

Hi,

This appears to be a problem. We will look into it and get back to you as soon as possible.

The font needs to exist on the machine where the PDF file is generated (a "default font" will be used if the font you specified does not exist). Once the PDF file is generated, the PDF file itself should contain the font information. Thus people can view the PDF file on a different machine without any of the font you used.

Thanks!
