title: DOMPDF problem with Cyrillic characters
body: <p>I am using the DOMPDF library to create an invoice in PDF. This document can be in French, Russian or English, but I am having trouble printing Russian characters.</p>
  
  <p>First, I tried to use UTF-8 encoding and placed the <code>meta</code> tag in the head of the HTML page to be converted:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /&gt; </p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>But that didn't work. </p>
  
  <p>Then I inserted this <code>meta</code> tag inside the <code>BODY</code> tag, and it helped solve the problem with French characters. </p>
  
  <p>But Russian characters still don't work. I have also tried to convert Russian characters into HTML entities, but that too does not work.</p>
  
  <p>I use R&amp;OS CPDF class, not PDFLib as a backend.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone help?</p>
