Status: Closed Resolution: Rejected Priority: 5 Submitted By: Martin Schröder (oneiros) Assigned to: The Thanh Han (hanthethanh) Summary: \pdffontexpand without autoexpand produces strange "ligature"

Initial Comment: In the attached test file the fonts are set up by \def\setupfont{ \resetefcode\font \pdffontexpand\font 20 20 5 %autoexpand } This produces a strange "ligature" in the fifth word of the resulting pdf (test/oertzen.pdf): instead of "ä" in "Verhältnis" something quite different is printed. If autoexpand is used, "ä" is printed. Also the log shows control characters at some points in the trace of the first page, most notably in the fonts names (0a and 00). ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Message: Logged In: YES user_id=421 Closed; not a pdftex problem, but a broken font. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody (None) Date: 2004-08-26 19:27 Message: Logged In: NO I don't think this is a pdftex bug. The virtual font is broken. You get the same result with this plain tex file: ----------------------------------- \font\testfont=pegri9d+20\testfont ä ö ü \char199 \char172 \char185 \char177 \char208 \char174 \char199 \bye ----------------------------------- Running

vftovp pegri9d+20.vf pegri9d+20.tfm test.vp will report some of the broken characters.
