Anyone who is familiar with using FPDF to generate PDFs, I'd really appreciate some suggestions here: I am using the following code, virtually identical to that used in the FPDF tutorial examples. But I keep getting a parse error for the first line containing the variable $this. In the tutorial they do not declare this variable prior to using it the same way as in the example below, but when I try and do this, it's a no go. Any ideas? Suggestions? the code -- define('FPDF_FONTPATH','../../../font/'); require('../fpdf.php'); class PDF extends FPDF { function Header() {

    //Arial 12
    $this->SetFont('Arial','',12);
    //Move to the right
    $this->Cell(80);
    //Title
    $this->Cell(30,10,'Title',1,0,'C');
    //Line break
    $this->Ln(20);

} function Footer() {

    //Position at 1.5 cm from bottom
    $this->SetY(-15);
    //Arial italic 8
    $this->SetFont('Arial','I',8);
    //Page number
    $this->Cell(0,10,'Page '.$this->PageNo().'/{nb}',0,0,'C');

}

These lines must be outside of the class definition:

$pdf=new PDF(); $pdf->AliasNbPages(); $pdf->AddPage(); $pdf->SetFont('Times','',12); for($i=1;$i<=40;$i++) {

    $pdf->Cell(0,10,'Printing line number '.$i,0,1);

} $pdf->Output();

This is the brace that closes the class definition, move the above lines below this brace:
