:( Well, the asciidoctor-pdf generation was commented out for a reason.

jakoch commented 7 years ago

Ok, i exchanged the font used for rendering and enabled autofit.

The last problem is due to using AsciiArt/Box-drawing chars in the dev manual to describe a folder tree. These symbols have no counterpart in the font. I added two emoji fonts, but none covers the missing symbols. Maybe a real fallback font like VL Gothic is needed or simply a better monospaced font.

Perhaps this can help? http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/251c/fontsupport.htm https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-pdf/issues/323#issuecomment-143966293

Great find!! I didn't know that there is a list of fonts, which support box-drawing chars. That's very helpful. Turns out, the emoji things do not work, so i'm changing the font to FreeSerif, which is in the list of fonts.

We are error dangling between Prawn::Errors::CannotFit (for fonts supporting the symbols) and The following text could not be fully converted to the Windows-1252 character set: | ├ (for fonts missing the symbols).
