btw, maybe simply setting another font for fontFamily block parameter in the exportPdf.ini config file would solve the problem ?

Hi

it seems fpdf is a bit limited with "non-standard" characters and need some tweaking to reproduce these characters correctly. there is some infos on the fpdf tutorial http://www.fpdf.org/en/tutorial/tuto7.htm
somehow, simply adding a
$pdf->AddFont('some_font_name','',''some_font_name.php');
and$pdf->SetFont(''some_font_name','',35);when adding the text block should solve the problem
but I havent yet looked exactly where in the plugin this should be done.

I also noticed there is an utf8 extension for fpdf, but I dont know if it would be difficult to use it:

Subject: [Cartoweb-users] encoding in pdfExport


Hi,
I use Slovak language in exportPdf module.
But this is bad interpreted.

For example names of layers in legend
 (names comes from mapfile - CLASS  NAME)
or own text blocks
 (strings are defined by blocks.myblock.content = "ľščťžýá")

some of our characters are interpreted by "?"

Is there any setting for encoding (charset) please?
I use utf8 everywhere.


And the second question...
Is it possible to disable any layer for printing (exportPdf) ?


Thank you

wochter
