mustafatop How to use specific charset and css property in apex pdf document?
I have used toPdf() method of Blob object in an apex class that is triggered with a custom button for attach pdf document to a custom object. But pdf content can not be displayed Turkish character and also can not be use some property of css. For example:
style="border-left-style:dotted;"I have used following apex code:
global class AccountPDFGenerator
{
webservice static void generateInvoicePDF(String accountId)
{
// Account account = [SELECT Id,Name FROM Account WHERE Id=:accountId];
String accId = accountId;
String pdfContent = '';
try
{
pdfContent = '<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"></meta></head><body>';
pdfContent = pdfContent + '<p style="color:red">' + 'öçşğüıÖÇŞĞÜİ' + '</p>';
pdfContent += '<table>' +
'<tr>' +
'<td align="center" style="border-top-style:dotted; border-bottom-style:dotted;">aaaaaaaa</td></tr></table>' +
pdfContent = pdfContent + '</body></html>';
}catch(Exception e)
{
pdfContent = pdfContent + '<P>THERE WAS AN ERROR GENERATING PDF: ' + e.getMessage() + '</P>';
}
// pdfContent = 'öçşğüıÖÇŞĞÜİ';
Attachment attachmentPDF = new Attachment();
attachmentPDF.parentId = accId;
attachmentPDF.Name = 'Invoice.pdf';
// attachmentPDF.body= Blob.valueOf(pdfContent);
attachmentPDF.body = Blob.toPDF(pdfContent); //This creates the PDF content
insert attachmentPDF;
}
}
And this is javascript code of custom button:
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/15.0/connection.js")}
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/15.0/apex.js")}
sforce.apex.execute("AccountPDFGenerator","generateInvoicePDF", {accountId:"{!Account.Id}"});
window.alert("pdf created" );
document.location.reload(true);
Created of pdf file after clicking the custom button doesn't contain some character and some html feature as I mentioned. Output of the pdf document is öçüÖÇÜ for following line:
pdfContent = pdfContent + '<p style="color:red">' + 'öçşğüıÖÇŞĞÜİ' + '</p>';
Do you have an any idea, can you help urgently?
