    Hello,

    I've downloaded and installed this font. It appears in my font list as "DFKai-SB". I can use it in the Text object, and export to PDF with no problems.

    Hi,AlexTz:
    Because your operating system is the English version,but we are using the Chinese version.
    So,when you call "Font.Name" ,the value is "DFKai-SB".But when we call it,the value is "標楷體".
    To fix this problem, when call "Font.Name",it must get the english font name in any operating system.
    But I don't know how to achieve it.

    Please run the following code in your WindowsForms button.Click event and tell me which name do you see?

    Font font = new Font("SimSun", 10);
    MessageBox.Show(font.FontFamily.GetName(0));

    I don't have chinese Windows and can't check that.

    Hi,
    I use traditional chinese operating system,
    I export to pdf, the chinese characters is ok when text object's font name is MingLiu(chinesd font name is '細明體'),
    but it is blank when text object's font name is Arial(default font).

    report preview & print is ok.

    I use the lastest version (2009.08.05)

    Hello,

    Arial font does not contain Chinese symbols. When you use it in Windows application to draw some text, Windows does the thing called "font substitution". It searches for another font that contains Chinese chars and uses it instead of Arial to draw these chars (note that latin chars are still drawn using Arial). This is complex thing and it's hard to implement it in the PDF export. The solution is to use specific font to display chinese symbols, instead of Arial.

    Hi.
    If i use Chinese font MingLiu(細明體), set font size = 11pt, export to pdf is ok,
    But when i design or preview report, text will be clipped a little on top edge.
    It's like that drawing text using GDI not GDI+, but i call follow statement when program start: Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false).

    Try to increase the Padding.Top property value of the Text object.

    It's no use to increase the Padding.Top property value, text is clipped a little however when using MingLiu(chinesd font) font.
    If you use Arial font, it's ok.

    But windows forms control is ok using same font when call Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false) in program start.
