the original, or text lines that are longer or shorter than those using the

correct standard font. In practice, these discprepancies tend to be

minor, but ultimately the choice whether to include the standard fonts
must be made by the OEM. Picsel have designed the PDF agent to

provide flexibility and a choice of either option.

Character Maps

ePAGE can work with all characters in the Unicode specification. PDF

documents are often encoded in other encodings, or reference one of
the character collections (Adobe-Japan1-2, Adobe-Korea-1, Adobe-

CNC1-0, or Adobe-GB1-2) used to describe the major Asian languages.
ePAGE handles these by detecting the character encoding used, and

converting it to UTF-16 Unicode. This conversion is done using the
scheme of CMap conversion tables created by Adobe for the PDF

format. The CMap character mappings supported by ePAGE are shown
in the following table. (In addition to the encoding support, the display

of characters is also dependent on the availability of appropriate fonts
installed on the device.)
