Now I have found that I have to convert the string:
txt = 'äöü ß ÄÖÜ'
txt = txt.decode('utf-8').encode('latin-1','replace')
This new string will be written correctly into the pdf-file.Is there a
better way?
No chance for the Euro-currency-symbol '€'....
Maybe there will be a full unicode characterset for pyfpdf in the future.
