[SOLVED] Call to undefined function PDF_begin

Answer 254 (83.33333% helpful)

PDF_begin_document() function is deprecated since PDFlib version 6.we cant access the function in lower version.so try the program as below.

<?php

$p =pdf_new();
pdf_open_file($p,\"test.pdf\");

pdf_set_info($p, \"Creator\", \"hello.php\");
pdf_set_info($p, \"Author\", \"Rainer Schaaf\");
pdf_set_info($p, \"Title\", \"Hello world (PHP)!\");
pdf_begin_page($p, 595, 842);

$font = pdf_findfont($p, \"Helvetica-Bold\", \"winansi\", \"\");

pdf_setfont($p, $font, 10);
pdf_set_text_pos($p, 50, 700);
pdf_show($p, \"Hello world!\");
pdf_continue_text($p, \"(says PHP)\");
pdf_end_page($p);


$buf = pdf_get_buffer($p);
$len = strlen($buf);

header(\"Content-type: application/pdf\");
header(\"Content-Length: $len\");
header(\"Content-Disposition: inline; filename=hello.pdf\");
print $buf;
echo $buf;

pdf_delete($p);
?>

Same problem is faced by me.
I think, this is version problem of PHP/Apache as LIBPDF is also installed.
