[Mapbender-users] Problems to print my map to a PDF in mapbender

[Christoph Baudson (Wheregroup)]

Hi Lluís,

thanks for your mail. I guess it comes down to your PHP installation, 
quoting the PHP website:

"Depending on your PHP and GD versions this function is defined or not. 
With PHP 4.0.6 through 4.1.x this function always exists if the GD 
module is loaded, but calling it without GD2 being installed PHP will 
issue a fatal error and exit. With PHP 4.2.x this behaviour is different 
in issuing a warning instead of an error. Other versions only define 
this function, if the correct GD version is installed. "

Maybe check with phpinfo() if/which version of GD is installed.
