Hello Andriuss,
That sounds like your server may not have the MBString extension installed. You can check this on the status page of the plugin. See this related thread:

Hope that helps!

Another possible cause is that the font is not properly downloading. Try using the method described in the FAQ instead, it’s better!
Let me know if that helps!
Ok to be sure what I made:
I am using standart template “Simple”.
1. inside this template i created folder “Fonts” and copied font.
2. edited file invoice.php and after <?php global $wpo_wcpdf; ?> i added:
<style>
/* Load font */
@font-face {
font-family: 'padthai';
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
src: local('padthai'), local('padthai'), url(<?php echo $wpo_wcpdf->export->template_path; ?>/fonts/padthai.ttf) format('truetype');
}
body{
font-family: 'padthai';
}
</style>
But still no luck… it shows boxed characters…
I added one thai word inside invoice.php to check maybe is problem with translation … but show boxed too..
Any ideas ?
I have changed to another font: Loma.ttf which is Thai font. So when I write in template Thai language word it generated correct. But other words is with ????????? characters.
Updated: I changed in invoice.php translation from for example:
from: __( ‘Invoice’, ‘wpo_wcpdf’ )
to: __( ‘Invoice’, ‘woocommerce’ )
and it helped in some field but where is $wpo_wcpdf->get_woocommerce_totals()
There shows ????????….
I solved problem this is with font, but one problem in domPDF ther is cache file I think it maybe problem for new fonts. I added new font but it again shows ?????? how can I add to cache new font ?

Hello Andriuss,
Glad to hear you solved the problem!
The only way to add the font to the cache is via the stylesheets – the first time dompdf encounters a font, it will convert it to the proper format. Remote fonts do not always work on the server (note that this is different from regular webpages!), but the local paths mostly work.
In my tests I have discovered that if DOMPDF had loaded the font once the wrong way (for example because you used a remote font, or because you made an error in the @font-face declaration), it doesn’t correct that afterwards. The most simple way to fix this is by removing the font from the cache file (not the complete file!). The font cache file is located in:
wp-content/uploads/wpo_wcpdf/fonts/dompdf_font_family_cache.php
I think it’s also best if you then delete the font files for that specific font (in the same folder). The name of the font is a long code, but you can see in the font cache file which file belongs to which fonts.
Hope that helps!
