React pdf-renderer does not display characters č, ć and đ

I’m using @react-pdf/renderer version “1.6.8”. However, am unable to get the following characters: čćđ. Instead get empty spaces.

The characters are from the Croatian language and can be tested on their official page.

Might someone know what to setup or how to approach the problem. Haven’t found anything on their official docs.

Answer

Try this

import { Page, Font, Text } from '@react-pdf/renderer';

// Register Font
Font.register({
  family: "Roboto",
  src:
    "https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/ink/3.1.10/fonts/Roboto/roboto-light-webfont.ttf"
});

// Create style with font-family
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  page: {
    fontFamily: "Roboto"
  },
});

const MyDocument = () => (

    <Document > 
      <Page size="A4" style={styles.page} > <!--Add Font style to the page-->
          <Text >Some text čćđ</Text>
      </Page>
    </Document>
  )

it works for me, for the Polish language
