Error thrown when use local characters with purePDF 0.74.20100527

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. declare font : 
FontsResourceFactory.getInstance().registerFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, new 
BuiltinFonts.HELVETICA());
2.add some text with local characters in pdf : 
this.document.add(purePdfComponentWithText);

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expecting to be able to save successfully the file. But error is thrown 
instead : 

ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property undefined not found on 
__AS3__.vec.Vector.<int> and there is no default value.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
purepdf 0.74.20100527

Please provide any additional information below.
If I use standard characters instead of some local(romanian, eg.: "ă", "î", 
"ş", "ţ"), no error is thrown. But I need to use the mentioned characters.

Any update on that issue ? We're facing the exact same problem here with some 
other fancy exotic characters.

I resolved that issue. At <a

Good luck.

I found this thread while searching for a solution to the same problem. The 
issue, for me, was that the content I was trying to render included characters 
that were not covered by my selected code page (Windows-1252). See 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows-1252. 

The root cause of my particular problem was obviously bad data (\u201f) in the 
database so I didn't investigate any further but my guess is that using a 
different encoding might let me actually render the text, error and all, and 
avoid the exception completely.
