notes

  • as of v1.2.1, we use onlyShapes = true which means that text is always rendered as glyph vectors. That way we do not have to deal with font mapping. The disadvantage is that text is not editable in the resulting PDF. A future version may provide font mapping and an option to disable onlyShapes
