export non-English characters problem
August 02, 2011, 07:34:18 pm
Im using the constituent report to generate some non-English contact information and i clicked on the "export to csv" and "pdf" button to export these information.

After i exported these information to pdf or csv, all non-English characters changed into something unreadable.   How to set the output file to use utf-8 encoding?

I remember there was some issue with PDF generation. It should be fixed in latest stable ( 3.4.5 / 4.0.5 ). So I would suggest first verify this fix on http://demo.civicrm.org and if it works upgrade to latest stable.
