Hi,
we are trying to convert an html file which contains hebrew letters (RTL format) in UTF8 and the output pdf file comes out with the letters being reversed,
for example if in the html we had the word “שלום” in the output pdf file we see “םולש”.

can you help?
Thanks,
Shahar.

htmlDannyutf8.html.pdf (110.5 KB)
htmlDannyutf8.zip (1.6 KB)

Hi,
I attached the problematic file (html inside the zip) and the output pdf file.
According to the pom.xml file, the groupdocs-conversion is at version 18.7.

About the code, I’m using the sample JAVA sample code:
Conversion.convertToPdfAsFilePath(“htmlDannyutf8.html”);

Thanks,
Shahar.
