Qoppa Software, a leading provider of Java PDF solutions, is pleased to announce jWordConvert™ v2016R1, the new version of their Microsoft® Word® to PDF conversion library written in Java. This release of jWordConvert includes a lot of font handling enhancements.

“We hope our customers will be happy with the new option to embed fonts when converting Word documents to PDF. Font embedding guarantees fidelity when rendering PDF documents across operating systems and platforms. To minimize the size of the output PDFs, fonts are automatically subsetted to only include the characters present in the document. Another feature added this version, is a better handling of non-Latin characters, including CJK and symbol fonts. ” says Gerald Holmann, President of Qoppa Software.

The new Word to PDF conversion capabilities will be incorporated into Qoppa’s desktop PDF editing application, PDF Studio, and Qoppa’s workflow PDF solution, PDF Automation Server in the months to come.
