Hi,
I am having some troubles with Czech characters in PDF invoice. I resolved kind of everything but address in PDF is without “special” characters. I use this:
$attendee_address != '' ? $pdf->Cell(100, 5, $attendee_address, 0, 1, 'L') : '';
Could you please help me?
Thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin,
If you look in the same template.php file in the invoice folder on around line 41 where it sets the $attendee_address variable you’ll see that runs the address through html_entity_decode(). I did some checking and it appears that the ISO8859-2 character set, used for Eastern European languages, is not supported by the html_entity_decode() function.
It may help to remove the html_entity_decode() function there and try downloading an invoice again. A suggested code change follows:
$attendee_address = stripslashes($attendee->address);

Can you check to see if the custom fonts you have loaded up include the characters you are missing?

Yes, they do.

Hi there Martin,
Could you provide some examples of the characters that are missing?
Also what custom fonts are you using and could you share a copy of your custom template for the invoice?
Thanks.
