I\'m having successful html-to-pdf conversions, but not with special characters.
Below is just a special character I\'m trying to display, which displays in browsers
I have experienced problems with DOMPDF when converting an UTF-8 html page. I simply solved the problem by adding
Between < head > tag. Maybe it could be an alternative if you set it with your encoding type.
IMPORTANT NOTE from comments below: don't use stream() and output() methods on the same pdf instance. If you do this wont work.
