Sarah,
Thanks for sending this sample code and the font; now
perhaps we can help.
Attached messages are held until one of us approves them. I just
approved it so it should arrive in a few minutes; usually this happens
in the mornings UK time.
Do you have an example of a real, small PDF document containing
this? e.g. could you type the same word in Notepad or Word
and distill it to PDF, then send us that? This would let some of us
look inside the file to see how things are stored.
Thanks,
Andy Robinson

Marius Gedminas ,
thanks for replying. here is the code i wrote:
import reportlab.rl_config
reportlab.rl_config.warnOnMissingFontGlyphs = 0
from reportlab.pdfbase import pdfmetrics
from reportlab.pdfbase.ttfonts import TTFont
from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
c = canvas.Canvas('t.pdf')
pdfmetrics.registerFont(TTFont('ArabicRiyadh', 'ArabicRiyadh.ttf'))
from reportlab.lib.fonts import addMapping
addMapping('ArabicRiyadh', 0, 0, 'ArabicRiyadh')
c.setFont('ArabicRiyadh', 32)
TEST = u'JGaHm'
#temp = unicode("JGaHm~", "ISO-8859-13")
c.drawString(100, 700,TEST.encode('utf-8'))
c.save()
the output was not JGaHm' at all, it another word.
by the way, i am uisng adode acrobat ME , and i used another viewer but
the same thing took place.
i tried sending the ttf file to u, but the coz of its size, the modrator
of the group send me a notification back.
thanks in advance,
sam ellawindy
