I have found that the XGraphicsRdfRenderer.DrawString() truncates strings when the string includes an & symbol( at the &). It also will remove + character from a string (I am sure there are others characters that give strange behavior as well). Is there a way to get these symbols to display on the PDF? What is the list of special characters that will not display? Rob. |

Hello, the class XGraphicsPdfRenderer is not intended for beeing used directly in your code (it was public, but this was a mistake). Use only class XGraphics for drawing. However, I cannot duplicate your observation. Please tell me more details. >>What is the list of special characters that will not display? By design there are no such characters.

Actually, we are not calling the renderer directly. We traced the call back from XGraphics.DrawString. Given the snippet of code below if we try to draw the a string that contains "Hello & World" the pdf will contain "Hello". If we try "Hello + World" we get "Hello World". If we try "Hello World" we get "Hello World". XGraphics gfx=XGraphics.FromPdfPage(doc.AddPage(new PdfPage())) XStringFormat format = new XStringFormat(); format.Alignment=XStringAlignment.Center; format.LineAlignment=XLineAlignment.Near; gfx.DrawString(title1, new XFont("Verdana",12,XFontStyle.Italic), XBrushes.Black, new XRect(TITLE_BOX_X,TITLE_BOX_Y,TITLE_BOX_WIDTH,TITLE_BOX_HEIGHT) ,format); |

I believe you, but I have no idea. I tried the "Hello, World" sample and it works. There is no code that eats up special characters. Please mail me the PDF file that your sample produces. |
