Export from FTM 2014 to Gedcom

Below different ways to export to Gedcom with non ASCII characters (using Farsi)


Issue looks like there is a problem generating PDF reports with UTF-8 characters from the Complete Genealogy Reporter - Case closed as it is a non issue for me
Fix recommended from support (looks still a problem) You need to need to select the RTL text option for PDF reports – see attached.
