Hello,
I am using TCPDF to generate a PDF document from data collected in a form: I cannot understand why some HTML entity, well inside the "<p>" tag, are not recognized by TCPDF and they are being displayed like normal text or "?".
For example, a code like this one:
<p>I will display Đ</p>
<p>I will display Đ</p>
<p>I will display Đ</p>
Is translated like this:
Any Idea to configure TCPDF (or Chronoform maybe?) to recognize those extended characters?
Thanks a lot🙂
Andrea

Works for me
If I were you I'd check what fonts your site or template is using.

I am using TCPDF as an Action inside Chronoform Setup. The problem is: from there I cannot modify the Encoding of the generated document.
As someone said here (https://www.chronoengine.com/forums/posts/t105590/p377759/customize-tcpdf-pdf-file?startat=0) there is no way to add php code to configure the TCPDF previously added as an Action.
Did someone have to use extended charset in their pdf generated via TCPDF already? Is it possible to do it using just the Chronoform plugin?
Thanks a lot!

OK so TCPDF comes with 3 fonts, none of which have latin extended characters.
What you need to do is add another font.
Here are three files, in a zip. Extract them to libraries\cetcpdf\tcpdf\fonts. Then set your body font in your TCPDF action to opensans
[file=11520]fonts.zip[/file]

Just be aware you *MIGHT* need to put these back in after updating CF or TCPDF. Additionally, if you'd like to use a DIFFERENT font, you can convert it here
