If you must use a form:
' Add Khmer header ws.PageSetup.LeftHeader = "សួស្តី! (Hello)" ' May not display – use cell reference ' Better: use a cell for header and print that row on each page
' Read Khmer text from UTF-8 .txt file khmerText = ReadUTF8File("C:\khmer_text.txt")
MsgBox "PDF created successfully at: " & pdfPath End Sub Sub WriteKhmerText() ' VBA supports Unicode if you paste the text directly from a Unicode source ' But avoid typing Khmer inside VBA editor – it may break. ' Better: read from a text file or another cell. Dim khmerString As String ' Instead of direct assignment, copy from a cell: khmerString = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("Z1").Value
' Export to PDF ws.Range("B2").ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, _ Filename:=ThisWorkbook.Path & "\output.pdf", _ OpenAfterPublish:=True End Sub VBA UserForm controls (Label, TextBox) do not support complex scripts like Khmer reliably. Workaround: Use WebBrowser control or simply avoid forms – use Excel cells as input/output.
Range("A1").Value = khmerString Range("A1").Font.Name = "Khmer OS" ' Apply Khmer font End Sub Function ReadUTF8File(filePath As String) As String Dim adoStream As Object Set adoStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream") adoStream.Open adoStream.Type = 2 ' adTypeText adoStream.Charset = "utf-8" adoStream.LoadFromFile filePath ReadUTF8File = adoStream.ReadText adoStream.Close Set adoStream = Nothing End Function Sub ImportKhmerAndPDF() Dim khmerText As String Dim ws As Worksheet Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1)
' Print titles ws.PageSetup.PrintTitleRows = "$1:$3" ' First 3 rows repeat
