Support for CJK Character Fonts
The default font is DejaVu Sans which doesn’t support CJK characters. In order to add support for Chinese, Japanese and Korean fonts, you have to upload a font that supports CJK characters (e.g. FireFly Sung) to your website and add the following code into the “PDF CSS Styles” option in the global settings (PDF section):
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
@font-face { font-family: 'Firefly Sung'; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; src: url("http://your-website.com/fireflysung.ttf") format('truetype'); } * { font-family: Firefly Sung, DejaVu Sans, sans-serif !important; } |
