Hello there, 

I have installed the CGI (windows installer) version of PHP.
I later downloaded the complete ZIP so I could have the DLLs.
I installed everything under C:\PHP

\PHP\EXTENSIONS
\PHP\PDF-RELATED

Now, within PHP, I try to call pdf_set_font($pdf, "Times-Roman", 12, "host", 1);
Do to a lack of information in the PHP manuals (for instance, where fonts need to 
reside; how you call them if they don't reside there (whereever that is); what the 
difference between host, winansi, etc... are.) I need some guidance.

I received two errors:

PDFLIB.UPR not found (so I moved it into the Inetpub\wwwroot directory (which is where 
the script was running)).
That solved that error.

Times-Roman font description stuff not found (so I moved the Times-Roman.afm file into 
the inetpub\wwwroot directory) 
This did nothing.


Are there environment variables I need to set?
Where do the fonts go?
How do I install more fonts?
What is the difference between the 'host', 'winansi' etc.. things?

A point in the right direction is sufficient (I don't mind reading), but if not, 
someone please fill in the blanks.

Thank you in advance
Randall Barber
