The forms16b3 Package
Author: D. P. Story
Dated: 2017-08-11
The forms16be package provides support for UTF-16BE Unicode character
encoding (called a big-endian character string) for the text string
type (PDF Reference, version 1.7, beginning on page 158). Text strings are
used in "text annotations, bookmark names, article threads, document
information, and so forth" (to partially quote page 158). The particular
application is to set property values of form fields, at least those
properties that take the text strings as its value. The package contains
support for Basic Latin plus the ability to enter any unicode character using
the notation \uXXXX, where 'XXXX' are four hex digits. Package
works for dvips/Distiller, pdflatex, lualatex, and xelatex.
Enjoy!
Now, I must get back to my retirement.
