Features / Usability


Generating PDF in Russian

posts: 104 France

I find the PDF feature really cool, and it works a treat in English.

However, the site I am working on also needs to display Russian (which I don't understand, I hasten to add). Putting the Russian into the site and displaying it in HTML works fine. However, when I generate a Russian page in PDF the text has nothing but ??????????? instead of characters.

My guess is that this is because the font being used in the PDF (I've stuck to the default option of Helvetica) is on the server, which is in America, and so doesn't have the cyrillic characters in it. Is there any way I can download a cyrillic font for PDF generation (it would have to be solely for the Tiki implementation, as this is a hosted site and I have no root access)?

Thanks for the help, again
