Hi Nicola, 

Thanks for using Syncfusion support. 

Based on your query you are facing issue (characters are rendered in windings font) while exporting the Grid to PDF format with Unicode property enabled. We have prepared the sample using your code example and we are able to reproduce the reported issue at our end. 

We have logged a defect report “Exported PDF file contains different font while local saving the Grid with Unicode property”. The issue will be fixed and fix for the issue will be available on 24th September 2018. The fix will be included in our next release 2018 Volume 3 Service pack 1 which is scheduled to rolled out in the month of October 2018.
