Steve-
Here is what I do for a fresh install of PHP/pdflib:
-Remove PHP directory
-untar PHP
-copy /path/to/pdflib/bind/php/ext/pdf/* to /path/to/php/ext/pdf
-download latest pdf.c from PHP cvs and copy to /path/to/php/ext/pdf
-run config (mine is shown below):
./configure --with-apxs=/path/to/apxs --with-mysql=no
--with-pdflib=/path/to/pdflib-4.0.1-HP-UX/bind/c --enable-shared=pdflib
--enable-libgcc --with-zlib=/opt/zlib --with-zlib-dir=/opt/zlib
-make
-make install
NOTE- The binary distribution of pdflib is much more solid and is easier to get going.
I highly recommend that you download that version and see if you can get it running.
Also, watch the compile of PHP carefully and look for the "pdf_show_boxed " line. If
it doesn't show that line, you won't have the pdflib compiled (even though PHP will
show that the pdflib is being included). If that line doesn't show up, it is likely
due to the path/to/pdflib/bind/c is not correct. You can point the --with-pdflib
option to anything and it will compile, but it has to be to that bind/c directory,
preferably the binary version.

Well, I had high hopes. PHP configured and built succesfully, I
installed it, restarted apache, but it still gives me an undefined
function error when it hits pdf_new() in the test script.
I'm assuming that I can just use make install and write over the
previous version.
Am I right in thinking that libpdf_php.so or libpdf_php.dylib is the
library I'm trying to get? If I search my build directory I find
libraries for perl (libpdflib_pl.dylib), and java (libpdf_java.jnilib
and libpdf_java.dylib), and of course libpdf.dylib, but no corresponding
php library.
Oh, yeah, here's the configure options I used:
./configure --with-xml --with-zlib --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs
--with-openssl --enable-trans-sid --with-
pdflib=/Users/steve/build/pdflib/pdflib-4.0.1/bind/c --enable-
shared=pdflib --with-mysql=/usr/local
Thanks for your time.
