Hi, all.

I use dll edition of ised quick pdf.

I know the iSEDAddSubsettedFont function in dll edition works for UNICODE characters only, Is there a way to embed a "subset" of a font for ANSI characters?

Can anyone help?

Thanks

For example, I would like to embed ANSI "ABCD" characters to pdf (not embed all characters within the font to pdf due to the size of font file is too large)
can anyone let me know how to do this? Thanks.

convert "ABCD" to UNICODE characters 0A0B0C0D, pass it to AddSubsettedFont, does not take effect
function AddSubsettedFont(FontName As String,
CharSet As Long,
SubsetChars As String) As Long

I think that maybe issue caused due to the function returns directly when it read the first 0 and think this is the end of UNICODE characters 0A0B0C0D

any idea?
