[reportlab-users] using unicode/utf8 etc encoding text

[Andreas Jung]

Hi,

I am working on a Zope application where I create PDFs on the fly from Zope 
objects
where the encoding of the texts depends on the encoding of the Plone site.

I am using basically XPreformatted() and Preformatted() to create the PDFs. 
So how
can I pass strings with different encodings to Reportlab so they will be 
rendered
properly? I have not found a satisfying solution in the docs.

Thanks,
