My problem is that I need to use cyrillic built-in font with a
microwindows application that use the win32 API.
After I have converted the font from .ttf to .c (otf2bdf, convbdf) I
have a very long array with a lot of symbols (2^16?).
So, when I start my applications, I'm not read the right symbols (my
application read a UTF-8 coded file and show them in a text field).
Why? How can I do for get the right symbols?
I'm not understand where is the mistake, the ttf font work well.
I thought to resolve the problem (dirty way, I know :/ ) by forcing
UTF-8 encoding in GdCreateFont function but this solution doesn't work.
Thank you.
Regards,
Cristian
