.net - Unicode symbols in iTextSharp -


i'm trying use unicode symbol in pdf file itextsharp.

dim base basefont = basefont.createfont("c:\\windows\\fonts\\wingding.ttf", basefont.identity_h, basefont.embedded)  dim wd font = new font(base, 12, font.normal, basecolor.black) phrase = new phrase("q", wd)

it's q.key in wingding. in pdf file it's not working. prints nothing char should be.

where error?

i did following , worked should. wingdings font appears in between 2 words square box bottom-right drop shadow. thing can't wingdings font embed , believe itextsharp implicit rule because assumed everywhere. tried wingdng2.ttf , embedded correctly.

are maybe not adding phrase correctly? or opening on machine without wingdings maybe?

    ''//create new document     dim doc new itextsharp.text.document(pagesize.letter, 20, 20, 20, 20)     ''//store document on desktop     dim writer = pdfwriter.getinstance(doc, new filestream(path.combine(my.computer.filesystem.specialdirectories.desktop, "output.pdf"), filemode.create, fileaccess.write, fileshare.read))      ''//open pdf writing     doc.open()      ''//insert page     doc.newpage()      ''//add regular text block using default font     dim phrase = new phrase("hello")     doc.add(phrase)       ''//create our base font     dim base basefont = basefont.createfont("c:\windows\fonts\wingding.ttf", basefont.cp1252, basefont.embedded)     ''//create our usable font     dim wd font = new font(base, 12, itextsharp.text.font.normal, basecolor.black)      ''//add text block using wingdings     phrase = new phrase("q", wd)     doc.add(phrase)      ''//add trailing text block using default font again     phrase = new phrase("bye")     doc.add(phrase)      ''//close pdf     doc.close()
