Hi,
I tried to combine ideas from http://code.google.com/p/pyfpdf/wiki/Templates
and http://code.google.com/p/pyfpdf/wiki/Unicode
but not much luck... encodings were always hard for me...
I can insert unicode via direct "write" ok,
but if I try to insert it via cell/multicell, I get stuck ...
I changed file encoding of template.py
and also replaced
if isinstance(text, unicode):
#~ text = text.encode("latin1","ignore")
text = text.encode('utf8')
and explicitly changed all set_font to:
#~ pdf.set_font(font,style,size)
pdf.add_font('DejaVu', '', 'DejaVuSansCondensed.ttf', uni=True)
pdf.set_font('DejaVu','',size)
but then I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
