Localized printing

Printing specialized character sets and fonts

PDF document generation in a specialized character set for languages other than U.S. English typically requires additional configuration. Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) provides a set of fonts that are always available to all PDF viewers. This set of fonts includes the Courier, Helvetica, and Times font families and several symbolic type fonts. In some cases, you might need to use specialized font families to handle languages such as Japanese.

Guidewire does not provide fonts for use with Guidewire products. Any fonts that you use must be provided by a vendor for your operating system platform. It is the operating system vendor that defines how you can use a specific font and under what circumstances. If you have questions about the acceptable use of a specific font, contact the operating system vendor that provided the font.

In particular:

• You must ensure that appropriate fonts are available for document printing and other features of the Guidewire applications.
• Document fonts must be provided and supported by the operating system vendor.
• Guidewire does not guarantee any of the fonts supplied as part of an operating system platform.
