I need to take an HTML page in Arabic and convert it to a PDF. itextsharp doesn't work. Here is some example HTML with Arabic in it.

<div>
    <table border="1" width="500px">
        <tr>
            <td colspan="2">
                aspdotnetcodebook
                ????? ???????</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                cell1
            </td>
            <td>
                cell2
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td colspan="2">
                <asp:Label ID="lblLabel" runat="server" 
                    Text=""></asp:Label>
                <img alt="" src="logo.gif" style="width: 174px; height: 40px" /></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td colspan="2" dir="rtl">
                <h1>
                    <img alt="" height="168"
