Question

I am using Zend_Pdf class to create a PDF document.

Here the contents are in the GERMAN language, So when I write the content to the pdf it automatically converts those characters to some special chars.

I am not able to figure out the problem….?

I tried some code like

$str = html_entity_decode($str, ENT_COMPAT, "UTF-8");

But it is not taking it and showing the same result…..!!!!!!

Please provide some code or links that helps me……..

Thanks in advance…..

Thanks Zsub,

I got the solution using following code :

$text = $this->_font->encodeString($text, 'UTF-8');
