Re: Incorrect rendering of some Chinese characters

How strange.
Anyway, thanks for the reply, Stefan. Setting the language to Ukrainian (why Ukrainian? :? ) did the trick. Other documents with this font also work now. Thanks again!

Re: Incorrect rendering of some Chinese characters

Still no luck with 308. I tried doing a clean install and it still doesn't work. I have to say that I don't understand why this is taking so long. When I reported this issue to the developers of SumatraPDF in January, they managed to release a fix the next day.

Re: Incorrect rendering of some Chinese characters

I'd just like to say that this issue is still present in Build 307.2 I didn't want to press the issue immediately after the release but I would appreciate it if you could include the fix in the next release.

Re: Incorrect rendering of some Chinese characters

Your developers still need to add the above font to the list of fonts that require hinting. That should take only a line or two of code. As for myself, I've managed to find an interim solution by converting the PDF to image and then doing the OCR, but you should still do it for the sake of other use...

Re: Incorrect rendering of some Chinese characters

Well, I've finally managed to track down the problem. Apparently, some CJK fonts need to use TTF hinting to render properly. FreeType has a list of such fonts called "trick_names", but it is incomplete. The font that is causing the issue with my documents is called "¼Ð·¢Åé" by PD...

Re: Incorrect rendering of some Chinese characters

Well, it's been more than two months. The new version of Editor is excellent and has some features I was waiting for, but this issue is still present.
Has there been any progress so far? I was also thinking of contacting the authors of FreeType project directly.

Re: Last view incorrectly saved after closing a document

To be honest it was very hard for me too to reproduce this issue. First I thought it was a kind of bug that corrupts history.dat but removing the file didn't help, then I thought it might be due to file name or file location, but renaming and moving the document didn't help either.

Last view incorrectly saved after closing a document

After some experimenting I've noticed that many documents that worked flawlessly in build 304 (not sure about 305) have an interesting glitch in build 306. The last view will not be saved properly in certain zoom conditions. When made to fit width in continuous mode the view will be moved down, some...

Incorrect rendering of some Chinese characters

Some Chinese text is not rendered properly. This is especially noticeable on the last page of this document: http://edu.ocac.gov.tw/interact/ebook/digitalPublish2/do/1009204169b-H-reader-04-01.pdf http://s20.postimg.org/6yadr9x71/Chinese_Sentences_1.jpg http://s20.postimg.org/udsawmgy5/Chinese_Sente...

Any plans for allowing the Editor to run multiple instances?

I found this feature in the Viewer very useful for two reasons. First is of course that I can have two different views of the same document (Split has this function but only gives two very small windows). The other is that I can save two different last views if I run the Viewer as a different user. ...

Not sure if this one was mentioned before... In Viewer, I can go to the previous view.

I can't find this option in Editor, which means I have to search manually wher...
