I am using TCPDF to generate multilingual content PDF in PHP. I am using TCPDF and using font ‘cid0jp’ but It is forcing user to download language pack for adobe reader.
Is there any way to generate multilingual pdf without enforcing user to download any langauge pack?
Yes, there’s a way. I just had the same issue. Why Adobe Reader is asking for the language pack i don’t know.
But i know that the best way to create multilingual PDFs is to use the
Arial Unicode MS-Font which is included in windows. That’s the font with the most characters according to wikipedia!! But there’s no Bold or Italics. You can buy a Arial Unicode Bold from http://www.linotype.com/en/817674/ArialUnicode-family.html#.I use the Arial MS Unicode-Font with chinese, japanese, cyrilic. For western languages i use the normal Arial so i have italics and bold.
An other possibility is to use for each language a own font which is made for this language.
To make the Arial MS Unicode to work with tcpdf follow the steps on the answer of this Question: Creating PDFs using TCPDF that supports all languages especially CJK
I hope i could help…
