    Hello,

    I am using the free version of the plugin and I am facing a problem with the greek characters displayed as ????? in pdf.

    What have done so far
    – I have created a customtemplate inside wp-content/themes/child-theme/woocommerce/pdf/mycustompdf
    – Copied the files of your simple template inside mycustompdf folder
    – Created fonts folder inside mycustompdf
    – Downloaded and plased verdana font files (4) inside fonts folder
    – Added the corresponding css style inside style.css located inside mycustompdf
    – In options page of the plugin, have set my template
    – Did a test and pdf shows greek characters as ?????

    Also did
    – In invoice.php I have added a hardcoded greek text (similar to hello world) το check that it all works. It returned as ????

    Any ideas that might lead to debugging the situation, is appreciated.

    Thank you for your time.

    Regards

    Hi @maddogkujo

    Can you please check that you have the PHP MB string extension installed on your server? You can check this on the status page of the PDF invoice settings.

    Let me know.

    Hi Alex

    it seemed that MBstring was not installed. Once I activated it, all is working well.

    Thank you for your time.
