Hi Mark,
It's possible that the document is not using Unicode, and is simply a
Cyrillic Font.
I'm currently working on a project which involves fonts, so it you
wish I've be happy to look at your file off list if you wish. If you
do, please e-mail as an attachment to george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Subject: [access-uk] Strange behaviour with a PDF document
Hello.
I am experiencing great difficulty with a pdf document with Cyrillic
characters, in that the characters are not displaying correctly. In
there place, I'm just seeing random Latin letters (sometimes
accented), together with other unknown typographical characters. Oddly
enough however, the guide to the Cyrillic alphabet which proceeds the
main lessons displays as it should.
I've contacted the company, and today they sent me a replacement
document which displays exactly the same. Therefore I'm beginning to
suspect its something with my system (either font-related, or somehow
the plug-in which detects Assistive technology is interfering with the
document (if that's possible). I'd be very surprised if that is the
case, however ICT scenarios have never failed to amaze me yet!
I'm thinking of trying the document on another system without a Screen
Reader or getting someone to inspect it on my current machine with JFW
unloaded, however so far the opportunity hasn't presented itself.
I'm on Vista, with the latest version of Adobe Reader, and JFW 13 with
all updates applied.
AS far as I can make out, all necessary support is installed with
Vista to cater for Cyrillic script.
Any help/suggestions appreciated.
Mark
