Sorry, I sent a wrong patch, please consider this new one in attachment.

My patch just fix wrong chars in the generated PDF, eg, before the apply
it, I got:

...
English: Hello, World!
Greek: Ge?? s?? ??s
Polish: Witaj swiecie
Portuguese: Ol? mundo
...

After apply it:

...
Languages: English: Hello, World!
Greek: Γειά σου κόσμος
Polish: Witaj świecie
Portuguese: Olá mundo
...

I needed to apply it even after update my FPC to rev. 33428.

In each case it will not be applied, since it assumes use of lazarus, and
