#5545: Ready-to-use solution for Japanese/Chinese/Korean PDF

 Priority:  minor      |   Milestone:  5.1.0     
Component:  vtigercrm  |     Version:  5.1.0-val1

 Japanese/Chinese/Korean chars are garbled in PDF files.
 But new tcpdf module used in 5.1.0 includes ready-to-use
 CJK(China/Japan/Kora) fonts in it.

 I successfully tested each of these CJK fonts by modifing tcpdf.php line
 2674 as below

    {
     $family='FreeSerif';
  //    $family='arialunicid0';   // Arial Uni CID0 (Japanese)

  //    $family='kozgopromedium';  // Kozuka Gorhic Pro M (Japanese)

  //    $family='kozminproregular';  // Kozuka Mincho Pro M (Japanese)

  //    $family='hysmyeongjostdmedium'; // HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium (Korean)

  //    $family='msungstdlight';   // MSungStd-Light (Traditional Chinese)

  //    $family='stsongstdlight';   // STSongStd-Light (Simplified Chinese)
    }

 Original FreeSerif font can't display japanese/chinese/korean chars, these
 CJK fonts can't display most of minor languages. So user may need to
 change font based on thier location.

 I don't know my direct modification to tcpdf.php above is proper or not,
 it's appreciated if you can provide some ready-to-use method (including
 code comment in/out) to switch into these CJK fonts easily.

 Attachment is my tested PDF result with japan/chinese/korean chars.
