           Summary: Common diacritics not shown correctly when exporting
                    batch label to PDF
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: matted-34813 at mypacks.net
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: Label printing
           Product: Koha

When exporting a PDF for labels, many common diacritics display as 2 unrelated
characters.

-----------------
Steps to reproduce bug:
a) setup a koha test environment
b) get a record with a diacritic in your system
 catalogue search -> Z3950 search -> Author: jurgen -> select
 the record matching the one i selectd above (jahre) ->
 save record -> add item -> wait for zebra to index (5min) ->
 catalog serach: jahre
c) generate a label batch
 more -> tools -> label creator -> batch -> new -> add item ->
  title: jahre   -> select and add checked 
   (select library if not already set)
d) export as PDF
  select record -> export batch -> export as PDF
e) open and view PDF  (zoom as necessary)
   (you can select text with PDF viewer and cut to cllipboard if needed)

Actual Results: 
Example PDF output that I cut and pasted:

1150Jahre Marköbel, 850 Jahre Baiersröderhof
3886542378
Books
943/.416

Expected Results:
The output should have the diacritic for ö correctly displayed.
1150 Jahre Marköbel, 850 Jahre Baiersröderhof 


Build Date & Platform: master
    2012-07-05 on Debian Squeeze  Linux 2.6.32

Additional Information: Refer to my detailed efforts in bug 2246.
There were too many different target solutions, so I broke the specific
behavior out in this new bug.
