PHP error while converting the image

Anonymous — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 03:36:53 -0000

Error I get:

Catchable fatal error: Object of class Image could not be converted to string in /home/aerotronic.nl/public_html/html2ps/output.fastps.class.php on line 146

I use PHP 5.2+. Mostly this error appears on newer installtions of PHP (I found out after googling)

The problems are caused by:

$this->write(sprintf("%.2f %.2f %s %s {%s} %d %d image-create image-show\n",
$size_x * $scale_x ,
$size_y * $scale_y,
($mask !== "" ? $mask : "/null"),
$image,
$init,
$size_y,
$size_x));

We can convert the object $image to a string with fread(), but that gives errors when printing (and a PHP warning which could be surpressed).

I use the stable version of the software. Choosing not to render the images produces very nice and sweet output! My compliments! (With this, I can be able to automate the whole order printing process. Not that it saves that much time, but it is also just for fun).

By the way, in the stable release, I found a typo: pushCSS instead of push_css. This has been corrected in dev version already.

Some text inside divs and h1 tags is not shown in the
pdf. I attached some files where the error occurs.

Text inside <div> and <h1> is not shown. Maybe the
first <h1> stopps the encoding process.

Missing H1-H9 tags are inserted incorrectly during the
XHTML conversion.

Example:

TD without corresponding TR tag

bkonst — Tue, 06 Sep 2005 06:36:36 -0000

See example; script assigns the bottom two cells to the
outer table, automatically closing the table when
incorrect TD tag is encountered; browsers automatically
insert TR tag in this case.

</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td>TEXT</td>

Fractional font-size values are parsed incorrectly

bkonst — Mon, 05 Sep 2005 06:41:47 -0000

The script renders the following example with very
small size of the second TEXT word.

TEXT
<span style="font-size: 62.5%">
TEXT
</span>
TEXT

a:link.test1 - style selectors are ignored

bkonst — Sun, 04 Sep 2005 05:44:21 -0000

See example; second link is rendered corerctly, first
link is rendered blue

<head>
<style>
a:link.test1{ color: red; }
a.test2:link{ color: green; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<a href="fdsfd" class="test1">test1</a>
<a href="fdsfdfs" class="test2">test2</a>
</body>
