Pdftk cyrillic characters encoding

Question

When i flatten a pdf document using pdftk the cyrillic characters don't appear correctly. а о й gets converted to а о Ð

I tried changing the encoding on the pdf , passing the data through utf8_decode() - that only worked for letters such as ä ø, converting the encoding with mb_convert_encoding() and so on.

Has anyone faced this issue before?

PDFTK does not have full UTF-8 support, see this – Saw

Encode with UTF-16. See: #6048470 – Alabama
