While I understand that Moodle is probably older than UTF-8, I was surprised to find that this mod could not handle Turkish (and other non-basic-ASCII) characters, instead displaying a ? where there should be a character with an accent or diacritic mark. Can we get modern support for character sets?

Bump.

I vote for fixing this issue.

Closing. This is an issue with the TCPDF library and the fonts that are included. You need to use a font that supports these characters. See https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=395896.
