**As** a international user
**I want to** export my work plans to PDF in my language
**so that** I don't have missing glyphs in the PDF
**Background**:
Most font formats in common use (OpenType, TrueType) are limited to about 64K uniquely encoded glyphs. Therefore it is impossible to encode all about 150K current Unicode characters in a single font, or even in two fonts.
**Problem:**
As OpenProject can be used in many languages, the PDF export currently can not, as it shows missing glyphs as \[\]\[\]\[\] or some characters not at all.
**Possible solutions:**
* Include more font files into OpenProject
Either let the user choose a font set/use the OP default language to determinate a font set
This could have licensing implications.
Good candidates: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noto\_fonts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noto_fonts) [https://fonts.google.com/noto](https://fonts.google.com/noto)
* Allow upload of font files to OpenProject by users and usage in the PDF export
