zend_pdf right to left languages problem

Question

i am using zend_pdf to create pdf files from persian language texts.

i have two problem:

1- i want to change document's direction to right to left as persian, arabic and some other languages are.

2- i use Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath('myfont.ttf'); to set a persian font. but when i render the pdf document i see that characters are separated one by one. but in persian characters of a word are joint together.

thx in advance.

Answer 1

i finally used tcpdf class for generating pdf files using php. it has good support for RTL languages and UTF. it also has a good fiture for converting html to pdf.
