Non-ASCII characters not being filled in form

[lagavuliner]

Hi, thank you for your script.
I can't get the non-ASCII characters into the completed PDF, do you know how I can troubleshoot and/or fix this problem?

var pdfFiller = require('pdffiller');
var sourcePDF = "test/test.pdf";
var destinationPDF = "test/test_complete.pdf";
var data = {
"firstName" : "String with some special characters čćšđž"
};

pdfFiller.fillForm( sourcePDF, destinationPDF, data, function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("In callback (we're done).");
});

I'm going to try https://github.com/eemeli/pdf-form-fill

Hello @SnowLep @MikeOaklet 👋
Did you find a solution to your problem ? I'm encountering the same issue 😅

@rbadr No, and I scrapped my project for other reasons so I didn't find a work-around.
