Thank you, I have tried u"World äöü éè €" and "World äöü éè €"
and both
table =TAG.font(table, _face="DejaVu")
html = str(XML(table, sanitize=False))
pdf.write_html(html)
and
html = str(XML(table, sanitize=False))
html="<font face='DejaVu'>%s</font>" % html
pdf.write_html(html)
The result is the same html-string
No success - the pdf file remains unchanged.
It looks like Times Roman and not Sans serif.
Has anybody tried my whole example with success?
Regards, Martin
