I'm having trouble creating a pdf document which contains the '�' symbol, it always appears as '£' and I've tried various ways of escaping '�' but always end up with the '�' in front of the pound sterling sign. To give an over-view of what I'm trying to do : Data is retrieved from a MySQL data base where I have stored any '�' symbols as '�'. Retrieving is done with PHP. I then use the str_replace() function to convert '�' to '�' but if I simpy put '�' I get the � appear. I've also tried replacing with just '%A' but then '%A' appears instead ! Anyone any ideas ?
