One of the differences between the macOS, Windows, and Linux versions of FileMaker Server is the way fonts are handled. This has an impact when generating PDFs server-side (no impact if you create PDFs client-side with FileMaker Pro or FileMaker Go). There is also an impact on WebDirect with characters from Eastern languages, but for this, there are Central Europe and Middle East versions of FileMaker Server, which we can install for you.
