--- Comment #2 from Theodoros Theodoropoulos <theod at lib.auth.gr> ---

Additional findings:
- src/Koha/Patron/Discharge.pm uses PDF::FromHTML->new( encoding => 'utf-8') as
it should
- temporary html notice IS created AND shows all characters properly, including
non-latin ones!

It seems that the issue is created during html2pdf conversion and might have to
do with the default font used.
There is an html2pdf utility (that is based on PDF::FromHTML module) that has
the same behavior. This utility allows the user to specify the output font in
the pdf. I've experimented with a couple of fonts and there was one case where
I managed to see only one line with non-latin characters using a DejaVu font.
