unicode - how to generate Chinese Characters using Postscript? -


How to generate Chinese characters using a postScript or related tool? I want to use Unicode to represent Chinese characters but it seems that PostScript does not support Unicode, but besides that, I want to specify several fonts to generate the same character.

In this way, I have two questions: 1. How to use Unicode in PostScript? Or to set Chinese characters in PostScript manner? 2. How to specify the font configuration using PostScript?

After all, if PostScript does not do this job, then what tool do I need for my purpose?

Thank you very much!

Adobe's official does not have any specific support for Unicode fonts is. (And this is the last version of the spec for PS Level 3, valid since its publication in 1999 - PostScript has not been developed as a language ...)

However, PostScript Support (later level 2) multi-byte fonts (2-, 3- and 4-byte) in a normal way (see 'cid' ). All postScript fonts require an "encoding": An encoding is basically a table on which the index status of a font, which can be found in glyph details for a given character. Therefore, unless there are no unicode fonts, there are multi-byte CID fonts that provide all the sub-groups of Unicode.

In addition, there are no re-distributed CMaps (CMAP.) If you need CAMP, you will need to get it from the Windows CodePage and the matching COPs from Adobe.

If you use just a "super-simple" method, there is no need to check the Unicode text string, language, etc. Sorry to disappoint you. There is no way. This will be a pipe's dream.

Instead, look at the CID-key font . These large numbers are designed to include glyphs (pages in PLRM)


Update: Linked to the correct page with CID font description has gone.
