nekpap,
You may have to create your own fonts here
http://www.fpdf.org/makefont/
Then place them in the font directory..
- fonts.PNG (46.93 KiB) Viewed 13043 times
Add them in System Setup..
- setup.PNG (31.41 KiB) Viewed 13043 times
Then you will find them available here ..

Thank you Steven!
I have done everything you suggested.
BtW the file names
must be in lower cases :
(in nurunpdf.php line 41 :
$PDF->AddFont($fonts[$i], '' , strtolower($fonts[$i]) . '.php');)
But it is still not working!!!
I think the problem is at line 740 in nurunpdf.php :
$value = mb_convert_encoding($v['V'], "WINDOWS-1252", "UTF-8");
So, i change it to :
$value=$v['V'];
and at line 925 :
$PDF->MultiCell($width, $height, implode("\n", $contents->lines), $borderWidth == 0 ? 0 : 1, $textAlign, true);
I change it to :
$text = implode("\n", $contents->lines);
$text = mb_convert_encoding($text, "ISO-8859-7", "UTF-8");
$PDF->MultiCell($width, $height, $text, $borderWidth == 0 ? 0 : 1, $textAlign, true);
Now it seams to work (for Greeks) for both labels and fields!
In my opinion, I think you should give the ability to the user to declare with the fonts and the encoding or you should replace FPDF with an extension which supports UTF-8, like tFPDF.
Thanks
