Hi Nelson,

SoftVelocity's PDF Output Generator doesn't fully support national characters.
At least we are having the same problem with Russian language. The only way to
show Russian characters in standard Clarion reports is to use "Scan Copy Mode"
of SV PDF Output Generator.

Try to add following code to PdfReporter.SetUp method.

  SELF.SetScanCopyMode(True)
  SELF.SetScanCopyResolution(PNGImageResolution:Original)

Hi Oleg,

I have encountered another issue. If use SetScanCopyMode, the file size is very 
big even i have lower down the resolution. Any better approach for us to manage 
the file size. If using external PDF printer like Microsoft Print to PDF / 
PDFCreator, is there a way for us to set the file name of saved PDF or print job
name?

Nelson

Microsoft Print to PDF - this is system printer driver, I don't know a way to
set up a file name when print from Clarion program.

You need one of Clarion third-party accessory tools for PDF output controlled by
your program.
