I installed Create PDF on a shared server tonight. All the tests work just fine. I create, display, and download PDFs just fine.

However, when I try to use it on a real website page, I get the following error:

..... plugins/createPDF/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf-i386: symbol lookup error: .... plugins/createPDF/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf-i386: undefined symbol: FcFreeTypeQueryFace

Any idea what might be causing that? Like I said, the tests from the plugins screen work just fine.

Hi Jim,

I'm not sure, but I'd be happy to take a look for you. Could you email the CMS/FTP login details and the url of the page in question to dave@interactivetools.com? Note: Email, don't post login details to the forum. Thanks!

Dave,

I found the problem. It seems that Create PDF crashes with the following error if the modernizr.js is loaded into the file. Modernizr.js is used to determine at run time which CSS3 and HTML5 features are supported by various browsers and to use that info when displaying the page to the user.

Modernizr.js is somewhat important to use when designing cross-browser HTML5 pages. You can find it here: http://www.modernizr.com/. Maybe someone there can take a peek and find out what's causing the problem.

Hi Dave,

I'm getting the same error. I expect it's something to do with the different fonts... how can I install them?
