Hi,

I am doing default PDF export functionality of Kendo Grid. But exported PDF file has extra characters in meta data. That results weird title of the PDF in Chrome browser. I have attached screen shot of the exported pdf and also a meta data of the file.  

I found few solutions (https://www.telerik.com/forums/saving-grids-or-charts-as-pdf-and-getting-strange-characters-in-the-metadata) that mentioned that I need to have <meta Charset='UTF-8'> in my code, where grid has been initialized. But I have set UTF-8 charset only in my entire code, still facing same issue.

I have few questions:

1) Which charset value is getting used to export the grid in PDF? (i) <meta Charset='UTF-8'> written in my code or (ii) default export functionality has its own charset value

2)  I am using Telerik.UI.for.AspNet.Core 2020.3.1021 version for kendo UI. Which specific library is being used for PDF generation in Telerik.UI.for.AspNet.Core  2020.3.1021 ? 

3) Is there anything else to try to resolve this issue?

Hey guys,

currently I'm trying to init my pdf viewer with a base64 string receiving from the server. Somehow it don't want to work, so I searched for a working example of you and found it here:

https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/ui/pdfviewer/configuration/pdfjsprocessing.file.data

Your example isn't working on your preview tab and dojo. When inspecting the browser console it is the CORS policy blocking the request of your example. Maybe you can fix it and I can investigate my problem with your example. 

Cheers,
Daniel
