How to fill a pdf form in JS?

The problem lies in the generation of a PDF file at the front. There is a set of data that needs to be turned into a PDF file. Everything is quite easy and it would seem that there could be problems here. I found the library https://pdf-lib.js.org/ , created a PDF form, but... this library does not want to work with Cyrillic. And I hit a dead end. this one is probably the only one that can fill out forms. How to be?

Why the hell would you want to create a PDF form if you just want to turn the dataset into a PDF?
If this data needs to be requested from the user, then HTML forms are more flexible and do not have problems with encodings.
