Description

When attempting to create a PDF of an issue an internal error occurs. I think it is caused by the '–' character (long dash or hyphen), because when I changed it to a standard dash '-' the PDF generated correctly.

In the log is the following:

Encoding::UndefinedConversionError ("\xE2" from ASCII-8BIT to UTF-8):

I tried on CentOS 6.
I added Gemfile.local file.

gem 'htmlentities'

I reproduced on ruby 1.9.3p125 in English.
But, I cannot reproduced on ruby 1.8.7 in English.

I think it is the same problem as #12309.
