+gofpdf supports UTF-8 TrueType fonts and “right-to-left” languages. Note
+that Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters may not be included in
+many general purpose fonts. For these languages, a specialized font (for
+example,
+[NotoSansSC](https://github.com/jsntn/webfonts/blob/master/NotoSansSC-Regular.ttf)
+for simplified Chinese) can be used.
Also, support is provided to automatically translate UTF-8 runes to code
page encodings for languages that have fewer than 256 glyphs.
