Hello.

I'm using smartsection and at first didn't wanna use makepdf but finally, I think it could be great for my website.

Anyway, I've a problem. I have japanese characters and they show up as *strange* characters instead of japanese. (for example:
1 ã•‚ã•‚aaAh!
2会㕆㕂㕆aumeet

instead of:
1         ああ    aa    Ah!
2    会う    あう    au    meet


I don't know if someone can help me with that problem, but your help would be really appreciate ^_^.

Thanks in advance.

I don't really have any expierence with makepdf, but what you are seeing is clearly an encoding error.
My guess is that makepdf tried to show double-byte characters using a single byte encoding.
Perhaps there are some settings related to the encoding type in the makepdf setup?

Sorry I can't point more specific to a solusion.
I'd like to know what you find out.
Best regards,
Daigoro

Hello and thanks for your reply.

Yes, it seems to be an encoding error but I don't know exactly how makepdf is working. I just know there is a file called "japanese.php" in a folder called "fpdf" so, there is maybe something to encode japanese that is not used in smartsection when trying to create a pdf file...

I don't really know what to do...
