BIRT Report PDF Output Font Encoding

Does anyone know how to change the font encoding for the PDF output in BIRT Designer?

Currently when Birt Designer generates a PDF, it encodes all the fonts in "Identiy-H" which is causing issues in a subsequent process flow.

I would like to change the encoding to a standard font encoding.

Thanks,

Kushal

What kind of issues is Identiy-H causing?

I am trying to parse the PDF report and the parser can't handle Identity-H, as such some of the characters are getting messed up.

How are you parsing the PDF? Have you tried using iText? In 3.7 you can edit the fontsConfig.xml and add/edit the <font-encodings> tag

So you should be able to add something like this 
 
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>
<font-encodings>
<encoding font-family="Times-Roman" encoding="Cp1250 " />
</font-encodings></pre>
