PDFLib

Hi Terry, this is a little recipe to get working PDFlib with PHP4: 1 - download PHP directly from http://cvs.php.net Uwe Steinman patched ext/pdf/pdf.c to support PDFLib v 3.0.1 2 - download PDFLib 3.0.1 from http://www.pdflib.com 2.a - apply every patch you find http://www.pdflib.com/pdflib/patches.html 2.b - Configure, Make & install PDFLib ./configure --enabled-shared-pdflib make make install 3 - Configure PHP ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs \ --with-gd --with-pdflib=/usr/local --with-mysql=/usr/local --with-pgsql=/usr --with-dbase \ --with-config-file-path=/etc/httpd --with-zlib-dir=/usr --with-ttf=/usr/local/include \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-tiff-dir=/usr --with-system-regex=yes --enable-debug=no make make install 4 - Test & Hack Now you need to restart Apache apachectl restart Copy pdfclock.php in your httpd directory... test... and That's all.
