Solution

  • Please implement following solutions here:-

    1) put a copy of ARIALUNI.ttf in fonts folder under tcpdf installation (i've taken my copy from windows\fonts folder).

    2) make a temporary script in examples folder of tcpdf and execute it with this line:

    $fontname = $pdf->addTTFfont('../fonts/ARIALUNI.ttf', 'TrueTypeUnicode', '', 32);

    3) set the new font in your pdf generator script:

    $pdf->SetFont('arialuni', '', 20);
