print textobjects in pdfs not as pictures but as text

Status: Completed

From DIAdem 2015 on the context of the text object is a string.

Greetings

There are two ways to add text to reports.

The first one is the normal textbox without format features like numbering and intendation with bullets and they are printable as text via the pdf-Diadem printer. The second option is to use textobjects. In this case the format functions like numbering and intendation with bullets is very useful to make little summary pages especially at the end of reports. However, when they are printed via the Diadem-PEF-Printer these textobjects appear as pictures. Hence, the text cannot be copied and used without OCR... also the appearance is not that nice, because of all the pixels instead of true type fonts...

It would be really helpful if these textobjects could also be saved with text.
