PayPal Module - language setting of PDF invoice??

[naranja67]

Hi everybody,

We are using Prestashop in two languages (German/English). When the buyer uses the payment via PayPal the language of the PDF invoice (sent automatically with the order confirmation) is always German, no matter if the buyer uses a German or English checkout in our shop. We have checked everything in the PayPal sandbox using different buyers from different countries, however the invoice language remains German.

How can we configure the AUTOMATIC email PDF invoice (not the one in the backend or in the customer area!) to be German for the German buyers and English for the English buyers.

Your input is much appreciated!!

Here is code of choosing Language of PDF in file /classes/PDF.php (PS 1.3x)

       if (!isset($cookie) OR !is_object($cookie))
           $cookie->id_lang = intval(Configuration::get('PS_LANG_DEFAULT'));
       self::$_iso = strtoupper(Language::getIsoById($cookie->id_lang));

The language is store default language or language in $cookie.
But I think because the invoice is generated when order is confirmed by Paypal, the user is Paypal Server, I don't there is any language in $cooie, that's why you always got default language.

Please try to modify above code to get language from database ps_cart table
Hope this helps

PS 1.4: in classes/PDF.php line 125:

'encoding' => (isset($conf['PS_PDF_ENCODING_'.$isoCode]) AND $conf['PS_PDF_ENCODING_'.$isoCode] == true) ? $conf['PS_PDF_ENCODING_'.$isoCode] : 'iso-8859-1',

try to change iso-8859-1 to something else.

But utf-8 is not working for me...
