Hi, i think, that problem is in class which generate PDFs. In the class is preset to encoding latin-1. The problem is in this line tidy.setCharEncoding(Configuration.LATIN1); in PdfExportImpl class. So only solution is change this line and recompile the xwiki. Or maybe compile only this class and change struts action to your new file. Jan On 12/12/07, Roman Anastasini <[email protected]> wrote:

Hi there,

Unfortunately e have a little problem with the export to a pdf file out of our xwiki.

Some German letters (e.g.: ö, ä, ß) are printed to ? when generating a pdf.

Does anybody know how to solve the this?

Looking forward for helpfully answers.

Thanks a lot!

Hi, okay, i have proper encoding configuration but czech characters is replaced by #. It may lies in fonts. I mean, that fonts which is used now have not support for czech characters. So if there will be option to set own fonts ( http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.94/embedding.html#config-external ) it may help.

Hi,

That line doesn't exist in recent versions of the code, so the fix above works if you are using a pre-1.1 xwiki. For newer versions instead, you should make sure the encoding is properly set. For the moment, it is a bit difficult to do that. Since german characters are part of the latin1 (iso8859-1) encoding, they should work out of the box, so this means that one of the following is not configured properly:

- the encoding in WEB-INF/web.xml - the encoding in WEB-INF/xwiki.cfg - the java vm encoding. This is a bit harder to configure; for Tomcat, you should add " -Dfile.encoding=iso-8859-1 " to the CATALINA_OPTS variable in $tomcat_dir$/bin/catalina.sh
