QUESTION

Wkhtml to export pdf with utf-8 tamil language

Asked 2021-Feb-13 at 15:32

In command prompt direct command execution at windows command tamil language is exporting successfully

wkhtmltopdf.exe --encoding UTF-8 http://localhost/pdfexport/phpwkhtmltopdf-master/page.html file/test.pdf

But executing same command via PHP exec($cmd) tamil strings is not exporting.

To me this sounds like PHP was not configured correctly for UTF8 support. In pure PHP, without exec(), could you verify this echo "ஆங்கிலம்"; gets printed on screen in a webpage or script of sort? Do this indepenetly of wkhtmltopdf.

How to generate chartjs charts to pdf using laravel?

Your best bet is probably to render the chart as an image with a Javascript-enabled renderer, and then add that image to your PDF.

Option 1: If you want to stick with headless rendering, you may need to add a --no-stop-slow-scripts option in addition to the Javascript delay (could also check out Puppeteer, an alternative renderer).

Option 2: Use a service that renders charts to image or PDF. QuickChart is an open-source web service that does this (I am one of its maintainers).

For example, take your Chart.js config:

Install phpwkhtmltopdf

Install the package through [composer](http://getcomposer.org):. Make sure, that you include the composer [autoloader](https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md#autoloading) somewhere in your codebase.
There have been many reports about corrupted PDFs or images when using send(). They are often caused by the webserver (Apache, Nginx, …) performing additional compression. This will mess up the Content-Length header which is added by this library. It’s useful to let the browser show a progress bar.
Exclude the download URL from compression in your Webserver. For example if your script is called pdf.php then for [mod_deflate](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_deflate.html) in Apache you could try to add this to your configuration: ``` SetEnvIfNoCase REQUEST_URI ^/pdf.php$ no-gzip dont-vary ``` For Nginx there are [similar solutions](https://serverfault.com/questions/438237/turn-off-gzip-for-a-location-in-nginx) to disable `gzip` for a specific location.
Suppress the Content-Length header when you send a file (available since 2.5.0): ```php <?php $pdf->send('name.pdf', false, array( 'Content-Length' => false, )); $image->send('name.png', false, array( 'Content-Length' => false, )); ```
It’s recommended that you download the latest wkhtmltopdf from their website:. These versions should run out of the box. If for some reason you can’t do so, you may run into an issue with the dynamically linked version of wkhtmltopdf. This is what you get for example on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS if you install the wkhtmltopdf package. It will work, but to use all features it requires an X server which is usually not available on headless webservers. We therefore provide two Xvfb based workarounds. You can either use. Both require the Xvfb package to be installed on the system and both also have some drawbacks.
the built in Xvfb support or
a standalone Xvfb server.
