Enumeration to pdf problem

rabatscher

Hi!

I tried to load a HTML file, basically it looks like:

HTML

<html>
<head>
<style><!--
.<default>{}


--></style></head><body>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<ul><li>sdfgsfg</li>
<li>sdfgsfg</li>
<li>&nbsp;</li>
</ul></body></html>

Alles anzeigen

this file has been exported by a WPTools based editor and contains an enumeration.

Loading this file to wptools and converting it to a pdf file results in a strange pdf output: Instead of the two bullets only a vertical bar is shown.

any help available?

kind regards
Mike

Hi,

You need to set the FontMode to embed the symbol fonts at least.

Thanks it works... But one issue still exists:
now I cannot set the CidFontMode to wpCIDUnicode any more. If I set this flag the bar appears again.

Also the dots seem to be placed a bit too high - the upper border of the second dot is approximatly on the lower border of the first line.

kind regards

Hi,

a different solution would be to change the global variables

BulletChar: Char;
BulletFont: string;
BulletIndent: Integer;

they are initialized as

BulletChar := #108;
BulletIndent := 360;
BulletFont := 'Wingdings';

but you can of course also use the bullet of the Arial font.

Thanks! That seems to work.

I use the #149 as bullet char which is the smaller version of the original Wingdings bullet.

Is it somehow possible to use the unicode character $25CF as Bullet char?
(this char seems to have the bigger point and the more exact wingdings bullet replacement)

kind regards

Hi,

Is it somehow possible to use the unicode character $25CF as Bullet char?

No, this is not possible.
