I'm trying to make my text underlined in FPDF but it seems to be impossible... I'm not using HTML. I'm using an DejaVu unicode font, which supports UTF-8, and also its my first time working with the FPDF.

Is that even possible? Please give me some solutions.

Try this :

$fpdf->SetFont('Dejavu','U'); //Where "U" means underline.
