[WG: I18N & L10N] SAK-21908, Non-latin Chinese/Japanese characters are not supported in PDF file

[DAVID ROLDAN MARTINEZ]

Hi,

Here are my solutions. I've extended org.sakaiproject.util.ResourceLoader to get pdf font depending on the locale. On the other side, I've changed site-manage tool to get font substitutions from ResourceLoader.
Note that pdf.default.font=AR PL UMing CN should be added to sakai.properties.

I've also attached these two patches at http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-21909 (the site-manage tool bug).

I would appreciate if somebody from KNL team reviews and applies the kernel part of this patch.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Cheers,
   David

OK. I'll do like Matthew suggest. I'll extend ResourceLoader at kernet-util to give the font depending on the locale.

I'll let you know as soon as I have something to test.

Thanks a lot for your feeback!!

David

Hi David,

I think that Japanese users prefer admin level font selection, rather
than the use of User Preferences tool to allow users to change the
font setting.

Aaron's proposal is fitting for our needs.

Best regards,
Shoji at Kyoto

From my point of view, it should be nice to allow user to choose their own font together with other options. We did it for a11y options in a research project and looked like this (the screenshot it's in Spanish):
