0Hello,
1. usually this occurs if the joomla email configuration is wrong. the email system used is the joomla system... there must be something failing. are you sure it works OK everywhere else? could you give me joomla access so I can take a look?
2. this can be added as a special char on the PDF function. If you know some PHP I can tell you how, otherwise I can do it for you if you can give me access
thanks! -

1just a heads up for anyone reading this thread:
the "₡" character and other special characters may not show up correctly in the PDF due to a Font problem.
the way to solve it is to force the PDF template layout to use the included font "dejavu sans", which is similar to Helvetica but contains a lot more characters. -

0Hi Germinal,
I know this is old, but is it possible to add another font?-
Germinal Campsmore than a month agoto add another font is possible but you need to create the necessary files. This article explains how: https://code.google.com/p/dompdf/wiki/Installation

Adedayo Adeniyimore than a month agoThanks @germinal will look into it asap. -
Adedayo Adeniyimore than a month agoI forgot to mention - I was interested in another font because Helvetica refused to show the Naira symbol in PDF. But I checked out the Dejavu Sans and its one of the fonts that shows the currency well. Thanks
