Special characters in the storyboarding export.

We just spent ages with a storyboard in Hungarian, and when it came to exporting it all the text is messed up because it doesn't export the special Hungarian characters properly - even though it lets you type them in fine in the program.
So a fix for this would be nice.

The text is fine in the html export, but not in the one we need, which is PDF. Maybe this is a bug rather than a feature thing?

It's more a bug than a feature request, indeed.
I will move the topic to the appropriate section :)

In the meantime, could you send us your project with the special Hungarian characters ?
It will help us a lot for fixing the bug.

Thanks and Hi!

I've worked out what the problem is. The default font for the PDF export doesn't support special characters. So if I change the font in the export to Times, for example, it's ok.
So the default font needs to be changed I guess?

Hi Dan, have you sent the file, as Thierry requested ?

It should be easy to fix, but with a file text it would be easier :)

I posted earlier that I'd worked out the problem. The default font used for the pdf export in TVPaint doesn't have special characters. So I changed the font in the publishing options to one I know has special characters and this solved the problem.
