    Hello,

    I have made a test document.php:

    [code]
    require_once '../phpdocx/classes/CreateDocx.inc';

    $docx = new CreateDocx();
    $docx->setEncodeUTF8();
    $docx->setLanguage("de-DE");
    $text = 'Ü - ä - ßberschrift Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit';

    $paramsText = array(
    'b' => 'single',
    'font' => 'Arial'
    );
    $docx->addText($text, $paramsText);
    $docx->createDocx('example_text');
    [/code]

    The file is saved as UTF-8.

    But the created Docx has wrong letters in it:

    [code]
    Ü - ä - ß - Ö - berschrift Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit
    [/code]

    Hello,

    If you are using an UTF8 editor, please remove $docx->setEncodeUTF8(); line.

    Regards.

    Ok, we have now bought pro version and if we use umlauts in addText it works, but if we use the same string in addHTML we get wired symbols??

    Ok, i solved the problem myself...
    I have to use a full html structure including <meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=utf-8'> and not only some html snippets..
