Certain characters disappear when converting a pdf file to multipage tif images

We are using and have a license for aspose pdf .net to convert pdf files to multipage tif images. Is there any setting in the aspose .net api that could be used to prevent the swedish characters Å,Ä and Ö from disappearing when converting a pdf file to a multipage tif?
Code used to convert
Document pdfDoc = new Document(@“C:\Temp\TillSkanningen.pdf”) Aspose version used is 21.9.0 the latest available on nuget.

        Aspose.Pdf.Devices.Resolution resolution = new Aspose.Pdf.Devices.Resolution(300);
        Aspose.Pdf.Devices.TiffSettings settings = new Aspose.Pdf.Devices.TiffSettings();
        settings.Compression = Aspose.Pdf.Devices.CompressionType.CCITT4;
        settings.Depth = Aspose.Pdf.Devices.ColorDepth.Format1bpp;
        
        Aspose.Pdf.Devices.TiffDevice device = new Aspose.Pdf.Devices.TiffDevice(resolution, settings);

       
  
        device.Process(pdfDoc, @"C:\Temp\OutputTiff.tif");

This looks like a problem related to missing fonts. I request you to install related fonts in your system and share your feedback.

Hi I have another pdf file which results in the same result when converting to a multipage tif I looked at the fonts in the pdf document where Helvetica,Helvetica Bold, ArialMT ArialMT-Bold. Installed all the above mentioned fonts on the computer I am running the code on but the result is still the same. Is there somewhere in the code where I need to add these fonts? Or is there some other font not mentioned in the document itself that might be missing?210906SKA5136215.pdf (101.4 KB)
