Special Character

[yunotruong-novobi]

Hi everyone, I facing an issue when updating a widget value by a string containing a special character, It still updates on the field_value, but does not render on the pdf when I open it by browser or any view pdf file tool

here is my code

doc =  fitz.open("example.pdf")
page = doc.load_page(0)
widgets = list(page.widgets())
widgets[0].field_value = "text contain special chracter †"
widgets[0].update()
doc.save("new.pdf")

Any suggestions for this case? thanks

PDF form fields in (Py-) MuPDF only support characters available in the Base-14 fonts, i.e. Times-Roman, Helvetica and Courier.
For checkboxes, specifying ZapfDingbats is also supported.
