Problem in converting from html to pdf

Question

I'm currently on a php project in which the pdf files can be able download generated from (html content) server side backend. I've already tested html2pdf librairy and I've found it is not a right choice for me because it doesn't support utf-8 format. When I tried with utf8_decode(), described in their documentation, the problem is just the same, showing a series of unknown characters. The language used is "Myanmar".

So I really would like to know if there's another good php based libraries for converting to pdf format.

Thanks in advance
