+Like FPDF version 1.7, from which gofpdf is derived, this package does not yet
+support UTF-8 fonts. In particular, languages that require more than one code
+page such as Chinese, Japanese, and Arabic are not currently supported. This is
+explained in issue 109. However, support is provided to automatically translate
+UTF-8 runes to code page encodings for languages that have fewer than 256
+glyphs.
