wrong symbol exported in fpdf... ñ as ñ ..?

Question

I dont know whats the problem but whenever I call the letter ñ from $_POST function it puts it in my fpdf as ñ .. any idea why?

Answer 1

Your string has a wrong encoding. It's UTF-8 but I think you need Latin-1 or so..

You can use utf8_decode() on your strings:

echo utf8_decode("ñ"); // prints ñ
