 * Hi Guys,
 * Actually I installed this plugin for billing in the website [http://www.b-krais.com/test/](http://www.b-krais.com/test/).
   However, I have a problem with special characters UTF8, for example “Razón Social”
   show as “Raz?n Social”.
 * At all website show correctly this characters except in PDF invoice.
 * In my wp-config have define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
 * Thanks!

 * Hi! The plugin is already working in UTF8, I think you’ll find that MBString 
   is not installed on your server. You can check this on the status tab of the 
   settings page. If PHP MBString is indeed missing, contact your server host and
   they should be able to help you out.
 * Let me know if that fixes your issue!
