dompdf has an issue with non-English languages where certain characters may appear as question marks. This workaround substitutes in the Print Friendly service which features a PDF option.

Here are the steps for applying this workaround:

  1. Take a look at the following tutorial: http://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-create-a-custom-ticket/#customticket

  2. Login to your WordPress site with your preferred SFTP or FTP client. FileZilla and Cyberduck are free options.

  3. Browse to the following location:

wp-content/plugins/espresso-ticketing

  1. Download the templates folder to your computer

  2. Browse to the following location:

wp-content/uploads/espresso/tickets

  1. Upload the templates folder to the location above.

  2. Download a copy of the index.php file at the top of this page to your computer and unzip it:

https://gist.github.com/lorenzocaum/e1d0bf671fd875f06593/download

  1. Upload the index.php file that you just downloaded (and unzipped) from your computer to the following location:

wp-content/uploads/espresso/tickets/templates

You'll be prompted to overwrite the existing index.php file. Go ahead and do that. Then complete a test registration and load the ticket in your web browser.

You should now see a Download PDF with Print Friendly button. Click on this button and a window will appear with the ticket information. Click on the PDF icon and your ticket will download as a PDF file.
