Now i am not the best coder myself so I may be wrong if so somebody else please correct me but im going to do my best here.

Looking at the error its the font that is missing meaning that the script is unable to find the fonts that you listed here:

PHP Code:


			
$arial=pdf_findfont($pdf,'Arial','host',1);

For font be sure to have something included like this:

PHP Code:


			
// Locate Font Directory
$fontdir = "C:\WINDOWS\Fonts";
// Font Name Parameters
pdf_set_parameter($pdf, "FontOutline", "arialMyName=$fontdir\arial.ttf");
// Find Font
$arial = PDF_findfont($pdf,"arialMyName","host",0 );
// Set font size and font name
pdf_setfont($pdf, $arial, 10);

Note: Credit for my given code goes to the php manual located here.

Cheers,
Randy
