wkhtmltopdf footer-html encoding utf-8

pdf, wkhtmltopdf

Solution

Try adding the following line in the HTML head element of the footer:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

Problem

wkhtmltopdf --encoding utf-8 is not working for --footer-html. I am using the following command. Both HTML files are also in utf8 format. ``` wkhtmltopdf --dpi 120 -O Portrait --encoding 'utf-8' --footer-html /tmp/testFooter.html /tmp/testMain.html /tmp/testPDF.pdf ``` Both files have french characters. But in pdf footer have bad characters. ``` <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <div style="width:95%;font-size:9pt;font-family:Arial;"> <div style="border-top: 1px solid black;width: 100%;text-align: center;"> test - Guérin 691BANNE - FRANCE - SA au capital 0 Euros -737 729 - Téléphone : 86 03</div></div> </body> </html> ``` Following image is output
