[PHPwestoz] PHP problem

[Tim Carpenter]

Hi, 

You have to open the image using pdf_load_image first, pass the result of that as the second parameter of pdf_fit_image.

Ok guys, here is the problem I have.

I'm Using Apache 1.3 and PHP 5.2. I'm writing my own invoicing program, and it needs to generate PDF invoices, and save them to a file. I've got it inserting text fine, but I've got all sorts of trouble inserting pictures.

The code that I'm using is as follows:


    $pdf = pdf_new();
    pdf_open_file($pdf, $filename);
    $font = pdf_findfont($pdf, "Helvetica", "host", 0);

    pdf_begin_page($pdf, 595, 842);

//PDF_fit_image ( $pdf, "logo.gif", 10, 10, "scale 0.5" ) removed this line for script to run

    pdf_setfont($pdf, $font, 10);

    pdf_show_xy($pdf, "Invoice: " . $invoice, 350, 750);

//extra lines go in here

    pdf_end_page($pdf);
    pdf_close($pdf);   

I've used pdf_fit_image() and gotten the following error: pdf_fit_image() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given, had to remove the line for the script to run.

I'm not sure what is going wrong, any help would be great.

Kind regards,
