Some Arabic text not rendered in PDF

edited Mar 11, 2024 7:37PM in Ask A Guru 10 comments

Hello,

Can someone help me figure out why Arabic text is not being rendered in the below part of my PDF template. Specifically, the ${item.description}. This field contains both English and Arabic text but only the English text is being rendered. Note that this form field is auto populated from item's sales description (which has Arabic text). I also tried manually editing/changing the description from the form but same problem.

All other Arabic text from table headers, field labels, header and footer render with no problem.

    <tr>
      <td align="center" class="pcenter"  width="4%">
          <p style="font-size:10pt;">${item_index+1}</p>
      </td>
      <td align="center" class="pcenter"  width="12%">
          <p style="font-size:10pt;">${item.item?keep_before(" ")}</p>
      </td>
      <td align="center" class="pcenter" width="42%">
          <p style="font-size:10pt;">${item.description}</p>
      </td>
      <td align="center" class="pcenter"  width="6%">
          <p style="font-size:10pt;">${item.units}</p>
      </td>
      <td align="center" class="pcenter" width="10%">
          <p style="font-size:10pt;">${item.quantity}</p>
      </td>
      <td align="center" class="pcenter" width="10%">
          <p style="font-size:10pt;">${item.rate?string[',##0.00']}</p>
      </td>
      <td align="center"

Howdy, Stranger!
