Hi Fred,
It's still open source. So all good.
Suggest raising a Issue report on the developer website:

- Khmer fonts again... in pdf this time - 1 Update

Hi!
Using mPDF to automatically save a php generated page into PDF I am
struggling getting Khmer characters out.
The Khmer display in the web application is fine, no issue there. When
trying to identify which fonts are being used I get this:
-apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto,
"Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif
Now when trying to use mPDF for this same address I get various
unsatisfying results:
1. Fonts apparently need to be self hosted in a dedicated folder, making
a Google Fonts css call doesn't seem to work
2. Using KhmerOs fonts is the only way I'm getting some Khmer characters
so far. Unfortunately I am also getting empty squares between some of
the khmer letters while I should get nothing. No letter seems to be
missing though
3. Using all other fonts (I'm thinking of Noto Sans but tried Bayon and
others) I only get squares and no Khmer letters at all.
4. And since this is used for the name+address fields in fact I have
some Latin alphabet and Khmer alphabet combined. I haven't managed to
find a font which could display both at the same time. It seems I need
two div with 2 different font specifications.
This is not very Linux oriented but it'd be nice if someone had some
idea or directions.
Thank you very much.
Fred
