If you need any language with special characters, not present in the default encoding, you need to change fonts and make appopriate changes in the pdf.php. Presta does not work with UTF-8 in .pdf. This was discussed several times before.

Yes we are aware about this problem and working on for RC4.

However, as the problem is still present in the released version, the are not so many chances, that it can be fixed in near future. So, I fix it, using ufpdf module. More details:

Now Presta can print documents in utf-8 without problem and we did not need hassle with encoding setup (especially, if you need more than one language in the shop with incompatible encodings – CP1251 and CP1257 for example).
