v3.27 TCPDF support - Page 1

Were there any thoughts on TCPDF support?
It is somewhat more widely used and better supported and it has Unicode support.
Today I stumbled upon problem with encoding ’ in our html. Default (and so 20th century) ISO-8859-1 does not support it (so PHP does not encode it - http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42023 ) and I switched to cp1252. But if some wider internationalization will be needed it would be very problematic without Unicode support.

P.S. TCPDF also supports html input but options are more limited than with html2pdf

no

if you want to use specific font with specific characters, just use a specific font. http://wiki.spipu.net/doku.php?id=html2pdf:en:font

just read the readme.txt file :

 - You can chose the encoding. A specific font must be used. The encodings available are: 
    cp1250, cp1251, cp1252, cp1253, cp1254, cp1255, cp1257, cp1258, cp874,
    ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-2, ISO-8859-4, ISO-8859-5, ISO-8859-7, ISO-8859-9,
    ISO-8859-11, ISO-8859-15, ISO-8859-16, KOI8-R, KOI8-U
  To use it: $html2pdf->setEncoding('cp1250');

So no Unicode suppport, OK.
Quite a strong point against html2pdf from my POV.

i'm actually working on HTML2PDF V4.0 : it will based on TCPDF and will be written in PHP5
