Bug description: Using the PDF functions after July 1st triggers an internal PDFlib error
Ok, I know this sounds unbelievable but its exactly what is happening here. I'm running a
script that calls this class which creates a PDF document on the fly, and everything was working
perfectly.
Working late at night surprised me when an error that I never saw before appeared on my browser:
Fatal error: PDFlib error: Beta expired - retrieve new version from www.pdflib.com in
c:\www\htdocs\boleto.pessoal.org\docs\include\boletos\class.pdf.php on line 52
I changed my internal Windows clock to May 1st and the script started working again. Is this a known
problem ? It seems kinda ridiculous to have a time limit to use a PHP extension.
That line 52 is the line that contains '$pdf = pdf_new();'. I'm not sure if this
happens on every operating system, but it is still a serious problem.
