Exporting PDFs with Different Languages


We love speed and performance!

To keep the plugin fast and lightweight, WP E-Signature's PDF export only includes English and European language fonts by default (including fonts for all languages would increase the plugin's file size to nearly 90MB).

If you need to support a different language or alphabet, you can set up a custom directory on your FTP to add the fonts you need.

To achieve this, you will need to log into your FTP server and create a new folder in the “wp-content” folder called “esign_customization”…

Step 1. After you create this new folder, the folder location should be: wp-content/esign_customization

Step 2. Download and install this plugin file!

Step 3. Upload the MPDF folder that you just downloaded (be sure to unzip it first) to the wp-content/esign_customization folder.

After you upload the MPDF folder, the folder location should be: wp-content/esign_customization/mpdf

By placing this new MPDF folder in the customization folder, our current MPDF folder (which only supports the English/European language) will be ignored and when exporting PDFs, our core plugin will load the MPDF from the customization directory.

Step 4. Test your language by creating a document in your native language, signing it, and exporting it as a PDF.

By uploading the MPDF folder to the esign_customization folder, all languages will be supported by our save as PDF, attach PDF to email, and Dropbox Sync PDF features.
