Still working with PdfBox and got another obstacle to tackle...printing Pdf containing Geek text seems to be problematic. Most of the text prints out fine but there are some characters that do not print correctly.
For example small Greek letter π prints out as "pi", also there is an issue with small μ that prints out differently ... thought, at least it looks like μ.
Filled out bug report yesterday, hope this could be fixed.
So far no solution on the horizon ...I will update this blog in case the solution is found.

And so it's time to update (I know, I know... millions were expecting this update!! ;-)...this issue seams to be solved by Andreas Lehmkühler https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1452 ... however there is a catch .. the solution is in version 2.0 and currently G.A. version is 1.8.2. I suppose, one could download and build 2.0 version from the trunk http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/pdfbox/trunk/ (use: svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/pdfbox/trunk/), but I haven't tried it yet.
If you do - let me know how it went for you.
