Dear Sirs: When Japanese message is placed in a PDF file, strange phenomena happen. $font = $pdf -> cjkfont( 'KozGo' ); actual displayed font: KozMin $font = $pdf -> cjkfont( 'KozGo-Bold' ); actual displayed font: KozGo-Bold $font = $pdf -> cjkfont( 'KozGo-Italic' ); actual displayed font: KozMin-Italic $font = $pdf -> cjkfont( 'KozGo-Medium' ); <ERROR: font is not installed> Then, for gothic fonts, only KozGo-Bold can be used, but I would like to display with KozGo. Best regards, Bunsho OHTANI

FYI, this is rejected in PDF::Builder -- the example given appears to work fine, and the OP has not added any further information

I have tried using PDF::Builder, but the phenomena that command '$pdf -> cjkfont( "KozGo" )' results in the same as '$pdf -> cjkfont( "KozMin'")' as is when PDF::API" is used. Best regards, Bunsho

Please read https://github.com/PhilterPaper/Perl-PDF-Builder/issues/72 and try it out. In that ticket, I explain what I looked at and why I did not find any problem (could not reproduce your reported problem). As I am not a user of CJK alphabets or fonts, it is possible that I missed something in my analysis. If I did, and you still feel that there is a problem, please explain in detail either here or on GitHub (if you have an account there). As I am not a user of such fonts, I'm afraid that you will need to explain it as you would to a child! :) You might also want to start with fresh copies of the font files on your system, as perhaps one got copied over another at some point. At least, confirm that the files are different!
