Zotero 7 won't export Chinese annotations with PDF

zzUdd · September 8, 2024

Recently I updated my Zotero to Zotero 7, and rapidly got use of its new function :typewriter. However when I tried to export the PDF with these annotations, I found only those English text annotations exported successfully. Is it possible to solve this problem?

Currently, scripts beyond Latin don't embed fonts when exporting annotations. Some PDF viewers on certain operating systems can display them using system fonts, while others may fail to render them.

Which operating system and PDF viewer are you using to open the exported file?

In future Zotero versions, we'll likely add an option to download fonts for your language.

OS Windows 10 and my current PDF viewer is Microsoft Edge. So actually the exported file may function well? I'd like to try other PDF viewers first. Thank you for your suggestion!
