Hi,

Setting:

TextProperties.Font = FontsRepository.Helvetica

Editor.DrawText("æøåÆØÅ")

Any setting for nordic letters I am missing?

The error comes from the export statement:

      Dim OutStream As New FileStream(Me.FileName, FileMode.Create)
      PdfFormatProvider.Export(Me.PDFDocument, OutStream)
      OutStream.Close()

System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.

Hello Brian,

Unfortunately we are still unable to reproduce this issue. Is it possible to open a support ticket where you can attach a working example that reproduce it in order to further investigate this.

Did solve the problem using:

      Dim font As FontBase = Nothing

      Dim FontFamily As New System.Windows.Media.FontFamily("Verdana")

      Dim success As Boolean = FontsRepository.TryCreateFont(FontFamily, font)

      TextProperties.Font = font

Hello Brian,

FixedContentEditor should do this by itself. It implements font fallback mechanism that will change the font of th TextFragments as soon as the symbols does not present in the specified font. That is why I am confused why this exception happened to you.

I think this may be a bug that should be fixed in the newer version of the library.

I am glad that you have make this work.
