I’m building a tcpdf file for my web site, in that tcpdf file ther is a table with some data, But I cant get this charters to work properly. for encoding I’m using windows-1250.
The charters witch are not working : č,ć,đ. I have tried with utf-8 but still not geting this charters is there something wrong with tcpdf?
here is my php:
<?php
require_once('tcpdf_files/config/lang/hrv.php');
require_once('tcpdf_files/tcpdf.php');
// create new PDF document
$pdf = new TCPDF(PDF_PAGE_ORIENTATION, PDF_UNIT, PDF_PAGE_FORMAT, false, 'windows-1250', false);
// set document information
$pdf->SetCreator(PDF_CREATOR);
$pdf->SetAuthor('Nicola Asuni');
$pdf->SetTitle('TCPDF Example 061');
$pdf->SetSubject('TCPDF Tutorial');
$pdf->SetKeywords('TCPDF, PDF, example, test, guide');
// set default header data
$pdf->SetHeaderData(PDF_HEADER_LOGO, PDF_HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH, PDF_HEADER_TITLE.' 061', PDF_HEADER_STRING);
// set header and footer fonts
$pdf->setHeaderFont(Array(PDF_FONT_NAME_MAIN, '', PDF_FONT_SIZE_MAIN));
$pdf->setFooterFont(Array(PDF_FONT_NAME_DATA, '', PDF_FONT_SIZE_DATA));
// set default monospaced font
$pdf->SetDefaultMonospacedFont(PDF_FONT_MONOSPACED);
//set margins
$pdf->SetMargins(PDF_MARGIN_LEFT, PDF_MARGIN_TOP, PDF_MARGIN_RIGHT);
$pdf->SetHeaderMargin(PDF_MARGIN_HEADER);
$pdf->SetFooterMargin(PDF_MARGIN_FOOTER);
//set auto page breaks
$pdf->SetAutoPageBreak(TRUE, PDF_MARGIN_BOTTOM);
//set image scale factor
$pdf->setImageScale(PDF_IMAGE_SCALE_RATIO);
//set some language-dependent strings
$pdf->setLanguageArray($l);
// ---------------------------------------------------------
// set font
$pdf->SetFont('times', '', 10);
// add a page
$pdf->AddPage();
//START OF DATA FOR PDF DOSJE

I’m not sure if it will work, but try
iconv. I had to use it when I was making Japanese PDFs. I don’t know what your encoding needs to be, but this is what I used:Obviously change ‘SJIS’ to whatever encoding you are using.
EDIT
Just repeating what I said in the comments below, but hopefully it is easier to read up here:
Try changing the fourth constructor variable to
TRUE, so it uses UTF-8:If that doesn’t work, I don’t know what to tell you :-/
EDIT (again)
Probably a silly question, but did you look at the examples?
http://www.tcpdf.org/examples/example_018.phps
Is there nothing there that can help you?
YET ANOTHER EDIT
Okay, hopefully this should do it:
If you are using values from your 1250-encoded database, you will need to convert them like this:
I made a test table with 1250 collation in my own database, and used the words you supplied. This worked for me. Let me know if it helps!
