Why font code2000 doesn't work correctly

Hi


I am rendering PDF with Aspose.words with code2000 in different environment, but it worded differently. Can you explain how the font was applied?
1. In linux env, the code2000 is installed in /usr/share/fonts/local, but the Korean can’t be rendered;
2. In Mac, the code2000 is installed in /Users/tshen/Library/Fonts, but the Korean is not rendered by code2000;
3. In Mac, set the font location to only the code2000 included, all the characters were rendered with code2000.

The attached are the PDF rendered in linux, mac with other fonts, mac only code2000, and the word template.

Thanks
Tony

We are a paid support customer, using this library in a production system for a customer-facing application. They now require support for producing Korean language output documents; we had planned to use Code2000 for this.

Is there a font that works for Korean? Or some other way to accomplish Korean language support?

If not, what is the path for escalating this issue so that we can get the support we need (and have paid for)? Thanks.

Thanks for your inquiry. Aspose.Words supports Code2000 font. However, issue varies from document to document. we will appreciate it if you please share your sample document here. We will look into it and will guide you accordingly.

I am a team mate of user hhez above. We have the exact same issue.

To reiterate my request:

  1. Please advise as to alternate approach to support the Korean language on Linux and Mac
    OR
  2. Please advise as to escalation process so that the priority of this fix is increased

Thanks for your feedback. For Korean language support on Linux/Mac. Please install office fonts on Linux/Mac to get the PDF rendering results close to MS Word. You can also copy fonts from Windows machine to Linux/Mac and set font folder location in code accordingly.

Furthermore, in reference to escalation of above issue resolution, please note we schedule issue investigation and resolution on first come first served basis. We feel this is the fairest and most appropriate way to satisfy the needs of the majority of our customers. However, if you have subscription to our paid support service. Then you can escalate the issue using it, as paid support has different precedence queue.
