First, you should consider changing your PDF Library to mPDF which you can download using this link below.

Link to Library Version 5.7: http://mpdf1.com/repos/MPDF57.zip

Unzip and upload the folder to your site root directory and adjust your path as per your required directory structure.

Based on the code you have provided, consider here is your complete html code that we are going to consider as final output in order to have this for pdf file.

Make all the suitable adjustments as per your requirements as it should best work for your in all cases.

As you are doing the PDF files for THAI Language so you need to define the Language parameter in your initialization.

$mpdf = new mPDF('th');

and for setting default font you can do: $mpdf->SetAutoFont(AUTOFONT_THAIVIET);

For further reference you can read this manual for adding THAI fonts:

http://mpdf1.com/manual/index.php?tid=453

Here is your final code:

<?php  
 $appendBlock = '<table>
