Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66537&edit=1 ID: 66537 Updated by: bjori@php.net Reported by: nospam at unclassified dot de Summary: PDFlib is dead, don't talk about it Status: Open Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: +Assigned To: rjs Block user comment: N Private report: N 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? You can edit the docs at: https://edit.php.net/?project=PHP&perm=en/intro.pdf.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-21 19:31:08] nospam at unclassified dot de 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 Only an old document can be searched that states that the Lite edition is no longer maintained.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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66537&edit=1
