Multi-lingual font support

Help

    Can Paperclips render foreign characters?  Are there any lingering issues with multi-lingual font support?  Previous versions of the JDK would cause the print job to freeze or print odd symbols when foreign characters were encountered.

    Thanks for your help.

      My understanding is that international characters works fine.  I have not seen it personally, however I did read a Chinese forum (translated into English by Google) where folks seemed to be having success.

      However it is SWT that ultimately provides this support--PaperClips is just a convenience wrapper around SWT.  If you want to be sure, try running Snippet6.java from the examples plugin, but substitute some sample international text and see how it does.  Let me know how it goes.

      Thanks for the quick reply.  I will test it just to make sure.  It might take me a while to get back, though.  I'm still new to Eclipse and plug-in development...

      Works just fine.  I've tried 3 languages so far, and they all print perfectly.  Thanks!
