Problem with rtf element in PDF

edited October 2010 in Devices

I am using the Infopower 4000 and am having problems with the export of some
elements of the text for PDF, example:
? "marker" is changed to ?
letter "beta" is erased
excel object that is in the text is deleted from the archive

In version 11 of the report builder everything functioned normally.

Is there something I can do? (I've already included the unit in the main
form ppWWRichEd)

    Hi Silvio,

    The rendering logic for Richtexts in PDF did not change between RB 11 and RB
    12.

    Please send a simple example of this in zip format to
    support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll take a look at it for you.

    Hello,

    I am facing the same problems as silvio, I am using RB 11.03. Also using the
    Advanced RichEdit, form the RichView Components.

    Hi Bert,

    The PDF Device for RB 11.x did not support Unicode characters however it did
    export RichText components as high quality text rather than a bitmap. If
    you would like all of the characters in your RichText to display correctly
    in PDF, you will either need to upgrade to RB 12 (and Delphi 2009 or later)
    or you can set the PDFSettings.ExportRTFAsBitmap property to True to revert
    back to the method used in earlier versions of RB.
