I mean is that garbled words or "???" are "Posted by" and "Posted on" only when the language is chinese and charset is UTF-8, the others OK.

Ok, so your news/language/chinese isn't utf8 I think, or there is a problem with a "define".

Take a look at news/language/chinese/main.php
Line 88: define('_MD_POSTEDON',"what do you see here?"

The file is really utf-8.
the line is:
define('_MD_POSTEDON',"发布于:");

Maybe try on a webserver and not locally.
What is your php version?

Webserver and localhost are the same, and whether system is windows or ubuntu.

Off topic: this is really pretty, Chinese writing.

Regarding your problem, black_beard is trying to find a solution.

This bug comes from the UTF-8 multi-byte. Black_beard and Cesag's methods was designed for Latin characters only.

I will see to that makepdf also works with Chinese characters

Thanks! You contributions are very much appreciated!

If you have time, could you convert makepdf to use tcpdf instead of fpdf? This would simplify things, and would help us to move all our modules to tcpdf.

For the more adventurous, it would be nice to have a module/plugin, similar to Tag or Waiting module, that other modules could use to get the PDF functionality.

The "host" module (like News) would check if the PDF Plugin/module exist, and in Preferences the admin would have an option to offer PDF to the users or not.

This way we wouldn't have to write a separate PDF solution for each module.

Any takers?

ok Mamba, I'll do that.
I'll rewrite it to use tcpdf.
For the PDF, it's an idea. I will create a module / plugin just after.
