Display Chinese from Unicode using FPDF
I need some help. In our DB we have some chinese characters that look like this 红 and when put on a web page it look just like a Chinese character.
We need this to happen in a PDF using FPDF. In the FPDF example for displaying Chinese characters he gives this example...
$pdf=new PDF_Chinese();
$pdf->AddBig5Font();
$pdf->Open();
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->SetFont('Big5','',20
$pdf->Write(10,'²{®É®ð·Å 18 C Àã«× 83 %');
$pdf->Output();
What I need to know, is how I can convert this (红) to this format (®É®ð·Å 18 C Àã«× 83 %). If I can get it in that format then I think I can get it to display Chinese in our PDF.
