    TableTools has no support for UTF8 on PDF output and never will. However, TableTools is retired and has been replaced by Buttons which does has full support for UTF8 output in the PDF.

    Hi Allan, thanks for reply.

    Yes, I', using "Buttons" currently.
    But if I try "PDF export", it is not working.(the text of part of Japanese is empty)

    To support UTF8, do I need to set some options??

    thanks.

    No - it should just work immediately.

    Can you give me a link to the page you are working on so I can take a look and debug the issue please.
