Hi, I need PDF creation in Rails and decided for RFPDF. Everything works quite nice the only problem is that I can''t display ä,ö,ü in the pdf documents. I found a tutorial that says that I have to create a font config file with MakeFont. I did it, but now I don''t now where to put al this files. Does anyone has experience with creating PDFs in Rails with ä,ü,ö letters?
