Bug Type: PDF related
Operating system: windows 2000
PHP Version: 4.0.6
Description: precompiled php_pdf.dll does not work

Addendum: set system date to anything before 2001-07-01 and this version of 
php_pdf.dll will work.  Not a very useful workaround, but...

Hi,

The pre-compiled php_pdf.dll included with 4.0.6 is based on PDFlib version 4.0.0 
($Revision: 1.79.2.1 $).

HOWEVER, according to pdflib.com, version 4.0.0 contains a datetime bomb and will not 
work past 2001-07-01.

Amusingly enough, PDFlib 4.0.0 was used for PHP4.0.6, released only shortly before 
this dll would cease to function forever...

An attempt to access pdf functions produces the following error: "Fatal error: PDFlib 
error: Beta expired - retrieve new version from www.pdflib.com in [script] on line 
[number]".

Since PDFlib 4.0.1 is available since 2001-05-18, perhaps the next release could 
include a php_pdf.dll based on 4.0.1?

OR, a fix could be made available on the site (please) because my c++ compiler chokes 
on 4.0.1, and the documentation included is obviously meant for people who are already 
experienced with compiling their own dlls...
