If non-English characters
are missing when you export text to PDF files, you need to install the Arial Unicode MS
font.
When you save a drawing document as a PDF file, and the drawing
contains non-English (non-ASCII) characters, the appropriate fonts must be available to
render the characters. If the specified font is not installed on your computer or does
not support Unicode character glyphs, then the Arial Unicode MS font is used. If the
Arial Unicode MS font is also missing, then the characters fail to render.
The Arial Unicode MS font is not provided with Microsoft®
Office® 2016 software.
Workaround:
To install the Arial Unicode MS font, install both of these:
- Microsoft®
Office® Professional Plus 2013 (minimal
installation with only International Options enabled)
- Microsoft®
Office® (2016 or later)
