₹ is properly displaying in front pages as well as product pages. But it is not displaying properly in pdf of invoice and shipment. How to change for proper displaying.
I have tried changing in lib/zend/locale/data/root.xml and also in admin/system/manage currency/symbols ,but no changes updating in pdf's.
1.Download the font that support Indian Rupee symbol. recommended dejavu-sans font.
2.place the font in lib directory.
3.open app/code/core/Mage/Sales/Model/Order/Pdf/Abstract.php and app/code/core/Mage/Sales/Model/Order/Pdf/Items/Abstract.php
and replace
$font = Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath(Mage::getBaseDir() . '/lib/LinLibertineFont/LinLibertine_Re-4.4.1.ttf'); with
$font = Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath(Mage::getBaseDir() . '/lib/dejavu-sans/DejaVuSans.ttf'); (in _setFontRegular(), _setFontBold(), _setFontItalic() functions in both files.) Thank you for great solution, it is working fine for me to show the rupees symbol in invoice PDF in magento.
