Hi.

I use what you describe in your example on this page to generate a base64 string from a part of a page and show it in the PdfViewer Component and this works great. The only issue I have is that the PDF doesn't show language specific characters (utf-8), like for example German ä, ü, etc.

Is there any way to make the them appear in the PDF?

Thanks,

Greetings,

Bernd

Hi Bernd,

Could you please try adding a font that supports Unicode characters as documented in the following help article and see if that will resolve the issue in question:
