After the release of version 1.4.0, the jsPDF finally supports encoding diacritics characters, but in a very strange way, in my opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Find the font which contains the characters that you need. Let\u2019s say it will be a Calibri.<\/li>
  2. Go to\u00a0C:\\Windows\\Fonts\\Calibri<\/code>\u00a0and copy a\u00a0.ttf<\/code>\u00a0font file to Desktop.<\/li>
  3. Go to\u00a0jsPDF FontConverter<\/a>\u00a0and select copied font file. Click on the\u00a0Create<\/em>\u00a0button.<\/li>
  4. You should get a JavaScript file with content like this:<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    import { jsPDF } from "jspdf"\nvar font = 'AAEAAAAWAQQAAB...==';\nvar callAddFont = function () {\n  this.addFileToVFS('calibri-normal.ttf', font);\n  this.addFont('calibri-normal.ttf', 'calibri', 'normal');\n};\njsPDF.API.events.push(['addFonts', callAddFont]);<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n
    The second string in\u00a0this.addFont('calibri-normal.ttf', 'calibri', 'normal');<\/code>\u00a0will be the name of your font. Remember it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    1. Add a downloaded javascript file to your project and import it:\u00a0import '..\/utils\/calibri-normal';<\/code><\/li>
    2. Go to a place where you initialize a\u00a0jsPDF<\/code>\u00a0object and set your font up:<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      <span class="hljs-keyword">const<\/span> doc = <span class="hljs-keyword">new<\/span> <span class="hljs-title function_">jsPDF<\/span>(<span class="hljs-string">'p'<\/span>, <span class="hljs-string">'pt'<\/span>, <span class="hljs-string">'a4'<\/span>);\ndoc.<span class="hljs-title function_">setFont<\/span>(<span class="hljs-string">"calibri"<\/span>);    <span class="hljs-comment">\/\/ <-- place here your font name, which you remeber before<\/span>\n<span class="hljs-comment">\/\/...<\/span>\ndoc.<span class="hljs-title function_">save<\/span>(<span class="hljs-string">'file001.pdf'<\/span>);<\/pre><\/div>\n\n\n\n
      1. If you use jsPDF Autotable add new font to autotable settings too:<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        doc.<span class="hljs-title function_">autoTable<\/span>({\n    <span class="hljs-attr">head<\/span>: [[<span class="hljs-string">'Column1'<\/span>, <span class="hljs-string">'Column2'<\/span>, <span class="hljs-string">'Column3'<\/span>]],\n    <span class="hljs-attr">body<\/span>: someDataRows,\n    <span class="hljs-attr">styles<\/span>: {\n      <span class="hljs-attr">font<\/span>: <span class="hljs-string">'calibri'<\/span>,    <span class="hljs-comment">\/\/ <-- place name of your font here<\/span>\n      <span class="hljs-attr">fontStyle<\/span>: <span class="hljs-string">'normal'<\/span>,\n    },\n    <span class="hljs-attr">margin<\/span>: { <span class="hljs-attr">bottom<\/span>: <span class="hljs-number">60<\/span> }\n});<\/pre><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
