Subject: [cl-pdf-devel] How to show 'TM' character?
Message-ID: <20060907234756.GA94629@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org>


Hi all,

I've figured out how to insert copyright and registered characters, but I'm
having trouble with TM.  Since the character code is 8482, how do I set this
up to work?  I tried format-string after loading a ttf, but SLIME got stuck in
some kind of infinite loop after choking on the character.

Any ideas?

The "trademark" glyph seems to be missed from afm-files for built-in fonts
like Helvetica. I am not sure if it is actually present in binary font
files.

I can only advise to use custom Type1 fonts generated from TTFs. (I do so
with my Window-1251 family of fonts.)
