Construct string with special characters

Question

I am building PDF’s, and I need to print a string with special characters. I am constructing the string as follows (using iTextSharp):

PdfPCell teste = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("<O meu texto> '\u20ac'", fontetexto));

Now what matters, my string is "<O meu texto> '\u20ac'", where the '\u20ac' present €. Only I want to print a password point, as the following image shows:

I’m tired of searching lists with special characters for C# / ASP MVC and can’t find more of the characters like / , [, ] for example. How can I build the string with the special characters?

Answer 1

Use:

PdfPCell teste = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("<O meu texto>" + ((char)0x20AC).ToString(), fontetexto));

Edit

The special character of this point you want is U+25CF, that is to say:

PdfPCell teste = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(((char)0x25CF).ToString() + " <O meu texto>", fontetexto));

Answer 2

Maybe you should rewrite your code

Take a look at this class:

iTextSharp.text.ListItem

With her you have exactly what you want.

Take the example:

it.List list = new it.List(it.List.UNORDERED, 10f);
list.SetListSymbol("\u2022");
list.IndentationLeft = 30f;
list.Add(new it.ListItem("One"));
list.Add("Two");
list.Add("Three");
list.Add("Four");
list.Add("Five");

Answer 3

A String is nothing more than a Char Array:

char[] caracteres = {'0x20AC', '0x20AC', '0x20AC'};
string palavra = new string(caracteres);
