Hi Rich,
I've been able to install php with both gd and pdflib compiled in, however when I run a php page testing pdflib I get an error. This is the php page file I use to test pdf functionality: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <?PHP $file = fopen("testPDF.pdf", "w"); $dokument = pdf_open($file); pdf_begin_page($dokument, 200, 100); pdf_set_font($dokument,"Times-Roman",14, "winansi"); pdf_set_text_pos($dokument,20,50); pdf_show($dokument,"PDFLib is working"); pdf_end_page($dokument); $dokument = pdf_close($dokument); fclose($file); header("location:php.pdf\n\n"); ?> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and this is the error:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fatal error: PDFlib error: [1102] PDF_begin_page: Parameter 'width' must
be positive in /var/www/htdocs/testPDF.php on line 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/9/en/os/i386/ rpm -Uvh libpng-1.2.2-20.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh libpng-devel-1.2.2-20.i386.rpm

Hope this helps
