    Hi Guys,

    I need to create PDF on the fly, but as I was trying on my server, I found that pdflib is not installed in GoDaddy hosting.

    In this circumstance, what I can do? any other way to create PDF, I've asked Godaddy for solution, but seems they gone deaf.

    Thanks in advance.:confused:

    i don't think that godaddy or other shared hosting would allow you to use libraries as pdf lib unless it is preintalled. i think you should buy dedicated or vps hosting and ask to add that lib...

    Sorry for my english :)
