I've been using dompdf with greek characters without having any problems. You need to check the fonts provided with dompdf.

I load my own fonts using css in the html that is converted by dompdf.

I have also found this package to be useful (laravel-dompdf). It provides a wrapper for dompdf, so you can easily export a view as pdf.

Example of css to use for loading fonts:

<style>
    @font-face {
        font-family: 'OpenSans';
        font-style: normal;
        font-weight: 400;
        src: url('fonts/OpenSans-Regular.ttf')  format('truetype');
    }

    html, body {
        font-family: 'OpenSans';
    }
</style>
