Modified the typo of the summary.
Comment 2 Wei Yan CLA 2009-08-17 01:57:22 EDT 
'?' has been resolved. The user can change the font manually to display the missing characters in the document. 

Defer to 2.6.0 to support Ext-B in DOC.
Comment 3 Wei Yan CLA 2010-05-12 03:31:05 EDT 
To support Ext-B character, we need first support CMAP format 8, 10, 12, 13, 14 in truetype fonts, see: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/cmap.htm

defer to future to see if iText support them.

DO we have to use iText? is there other solution?
