Hi All,

Just curious...

Has anyone been able to get the PDF Creator 1.04 plugin to work on Bluehost shared hosting?

With 1.04, I get the following error:

 error while loading shared libraries: libfontconfig.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

Although version 1.03 works perfectly.

Also, it seems that the libfontconfig.so.1 library is not installed by default, and they say it is unlikely that they will install it on their shared hosting servers any time soon.

Thanks,

Hi Jerry,

Thanks for the feedback. Have you tried contacting your hosting company to see if they'll install the library on the server?

Cheers,

Greg

Hi Greg,

Thanks for looking at this.

Yes I did and they don't seem to have much interest in installing what they consider custom stuff for specific clients in their shared hosting environment.

Interesting that that library did not seem to be required in any previous versions of the createPDF plugin.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for weighing in.

Any real downside to using 1.03?

Seems to work with that one.

Hi Jerry, If a previous version works then yes I'd try that.  

It would be because it's a previous version of wkhtmltopdf I imagine.  

Can you let me know if it does work?  

Thanks!

HI Dave,

1.03 seems to work fine, so I think I'll stick with that.

Best,
