The alphabets of east european countries have a lot of diacritical characters or even completely different characters (Russian).
Polish: ą / Ć / ć / ę / Ł / ł / ń / Ó / ó / Ś / ś / Ź / ź / Ż / ż
Czech: Á / á / Č / č / Ď / ď / É / é / Ě / ě / Í / í / Ň / ň / Ó / ó / Ř / ř / Š / š / Ť / ť / Ú / ú / Ů / ů / Ý / ý / Ž / ž
Russian: Ђ / Ѓ / Є / Ѕ / І / Ї / Ј / Љ / Њ / Ћ / Ќ / / Ў / Ў / А / Б / В / Г / Д / Е / Ж / З / И / Й / К / Л / М / Н / О / П / Т / У / Ф / Х / Ц / Ч / Ш / Щ / Ъ / Ы / Ь / Э / Ю / Я / а / б / в / г / д / е / ж / з / и / й / к / л / м / н / о / п
They are used widespread in first names, surnames, company names, addresses, article descriptions etc.
We use iReport 5.5 to create our printable forms and reports.
Inside iReport, those characters print fine in the preview.
However when the Servoy Jasper Report Plugin 5.5.0 prints them in the running application to a PDF file, a lot of those special characters will not show.
Russian characters will even not print at all. Same is true for Chinese signs like 艾普瑟轮.
We tried also to use the latest version Servoy Jasper Report Plugin 6.2.0 which did not work either.
We use Servoy 7.4.5 on the server and postgreSQL with UTF-8 coding.
The attached picture shows which characters will not print.
I created a case today under https://support.servoy.com/browse/SVY-10129
