I'm seeing this also 1.4.10 to 1.5 upgrade.

As I look at it further the PDF is fully created and I can access it directly by pathname, but the redirect in the new window doesn't appear to work properly (as seen in the error message above) - headers get sent before PDF tries to get sent which screws with the MIME types.

Interesting, it appears that the trailing LF from the font file is causing PHP to throw these errors. Once I modified the fonts/helveticai.php and fonts/helvetica.php files to remove them, the script functions normally when using these fonts. I opened the files in vim and deleted the final "^M" character in the file, which seems to work.

I've observed this behavior under both Linux and MacOS X at this point, and have verified the quick hackish solution under Linux. It appears that the Windows version may expect the final LF to be there in any case.

Confirmation

Confirmed fix here as well - thanks for finding that!

I also checked my old 1.4.10 and 1.4.7 installs and they appear to have shipped without the extra LF.

Edit: Note that you need to change all font faces that you use - helveticabi.php if you use bold sans-serif, etc. There is an extra line feed at the end of each line, but removing only the final one is sufficient. This indicates that it was last developed on windows, then copied straight over instead of converting CR/LF entries - also explains why the individual above has no problems on windows.

For a quick (but also correct) fix, run 'dos2unix fonts/*.php fonts/makefont/*.php'

Hello,
this new version is great Thorsten!
I'm having the same problem as you guys but i didn't understand how to fix it. Could someone tell me what to remove?. If i open the file font/helveticai.php with my text editor i can't find any "^M".

Thanks in advance.

Can someone post the corrected files here?
They could be made available as patch...

edit:
Seems like you can use the font files of the previous versions of phpmyfaq to solve the problem.
