I forgot this issue for a long time, sorry... Any updates on this problem? New link to the bugreport: http://community.jaspersoft.com/jasperreports-library/issues/5690 Best regards Wolfgang

A Word sample file prints fine. Attached is the word file and the result of printing to PDFCreator. A "real" printing also works. Thanks for the great idea to verify it with Word. I should have thought about this. Actually, it might still be a font problem, but I don't have enough knowledge about windows fonts, so I started my "research" at the the place where the problem is observed, which is JasperReports ;-) Wolfgang

I am not sure whether this is a bug with JasperReports or with a font file, but I start posting my question here. Maybe someone can take a look at it and point me to more details. I try to render uincode IPA chars, and one of them is U+032F: "COMBINING INVERTED BREVE BELOW". The font "Doulos SIL" is used for this: scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php Attached is a simple self running report ("ipatest.jrxml"): it renders a static text containing this breve using "Doulos SIL" and alternatively using "Arial Unicode MS" (a Microsoft font included in Office). In both cases, the char "0x032f" (combining inverted breve below) is rendered below the second "u" of the IPA - all is fine. But when printing, the Doulo SIL breve is placed at the wrong location - some chars to the right. See screenshot "brevebelow.png" (taken from the PDF printout - with some arrows to show the problem). "JasperReports - ipatest.pdf" was generated by using "PDFCreator". The MS font prints fine, but it is not an alternative because it misses other IPA chars. Thanks Wolfgang
