Show this as PDF file problem

Post by AndrewB »

If I use the Show this as PDF file link for a FAQ that has a GIF image in it then I get error messages.

Well, the GIF image is in the attachment folder and I am linking to it there. Is this the problem?

Hi Andrew,

GIF images aren't supported due to license problems by FPDF which generate the PDF files.

I had no problems with jpg pictures. You should switch to png instead of gif by the way. Most browsers support them and there is no licensing fee envolved.
