New Comment:
The extension seems to be fairly well maintained according to its release history: http://pecl.php.net/package/pdflib
Maybe it only works with the commercial pdflib these days?
Rainer: Could you update the docs or explain things a little better?

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/intro.pdf
---
In the manual, it says that PDFlib Lite can be used with PHP. One should refer the their website to
learn about the restrictions of the Lite edition. But the external website doesn't even mention
PDFlib Lite. Only an old document can be searched that states that the Lite edition is no longer
maintained. So it's dead. The PDF section should be removed from the manual to save readers
from wasting their time.
