[RESOLVED] Creating PDF: Character  before £
Hello All!
I have a small problem, I am using PHP with ezpdf (of which we have extended in-house), but every time I try to print out '£', it prints out '£'.
I have attempted to use £ but the PDF engine does not like that.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to combat this issue?
Thanks in advance!

Just some more info... I have done a load of Google searches with no answer, but this link did pop up on my travels.

It says how there is an error with JavaScript, but I cannot figure out how this relates to my problem with PHP vs EZPDF...

It looks like a charset issue.
Does this help?

Re: Creating PDF: Character  before £
Hmmm, I have had a quick look through it, because we have extended it in-house it's going to be slightly different than the example provided.
I will look into it in more depth when I can, thanks for the link pena!
Re: Creating PDF: Character  before £
Right, before I had a chance to find the files of which we have extended, my colleague showed my this...
Of which solved my problem!
Thanks anyway pena!1

So it was a charset issue. :p
What's ezpdf like? And how does it compare to pdflib?
Re: [RESOLVED] Creating PDF: Character  before £
Well, when I first used a PDF engine it never worked to my satisfaction, so I used HTML2PDF, of which converts a standard HTML document to PDF, a little ropey, but it worked.
EZPDF isn't so bad, cannot really compare it with PDFlib. EZPDF requires a lot of code to do such a simple task. Also it is limited (even our extended version) as far as lines and shading goes.
