Add INR symbol

INR symbol should get printed in the PDF.
This may require to use some font which has ₹ in it. This link has steps to add a cutom font to use in pdfmake. The same is discussed at bpampuch/pdfmake#33.

Ubuntu font contains ₹. It can be downloaded from here.

What is the key in ubuntu font family to add ₹ symbol? Myself used with Ubuntu-R.ttf font & build the vfs_fonts.js file. But no use when trying with both ₹ & U+20B9 in typing.

@mpsbhat Simply use vfs_fonts.js file from this repository. It contains Roboto font which has ₹ symbol.

But myself using some other fonts also in my application. Also is it possible to use UTF-8 fonts like Kannada. Tried and failed with lohit kannada, baraha & nudi fonts.

Make sure that those font have ₹ symbol, and you'll be able to see it on the PDF, when you use &#8377 in HTML or use ₹ (typed using shift + 4 in some indianized keyboards).

Thank you for the information.
Is there any ways to include Kannada fonts (unicode) also?
