I have a title ("cadeau check 50 €") in a form value that I want to write to a background image with arial.ttf. My text is correct but for the euro sign. I have 2 [] in place. I don't know where the problem is coming from. Is this an encoding problem in PIL, or have I a problem with the font?
Maybe use Unicode strings?? Like u'cadeau check 50 €' ... Now, does also your font have the corresponding glyphs?
PIL: how to draw € on an image with draw.text?
