you don't have to increase your "pdf memory", there's no such animal. My guess is that might need to increase the amount of memory php is allowed to use, set "memory_limit" in your php.ini to an appropriate level. If this is not the answer you are looking for, please post an actual error message and a description of what does not work.

[b]Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 20971520 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 19456 bytes) in /usr/www/users/dangerk/simple/pdf/fpdf/font/Helvetica-iso-8859-1.php on line 8[/b]
Thats the error I receive, please note I am using a hosting company..
Thanks

You need to ask the hoster to increase the php "memory_limit" size to more than the current 20M.

Hey Danger,

refer http://www.simpleinvoices.org/index.php?page=Documentation#pdf

for info on how to change your php.ini settings to get pdf working

note: not all hosts allow access to php.ini

Cheers

Hey Guys
Thanks for the advice, I managed to my hosting company to increase the php.ini to 32M, and it works perfectly now. :D :D
The only problem is that I have to password protect the directory as the si_user query, which sets a login page, allows you in with no user name and password, which is a big security loop for me.
And when I password protect the directory, pdf export and pdf mailing have 401 errors, I did hear Apilisia mention that it will be sorted in the next edition.
So till then.
Ciao for now......

Hey Danger

re your security issue

edit config/config.php

set
$MD5Auth = True; /*To turn of md5 auth set $MD5Auth to True*/
#$MD5Auth = FALSE; /*To Turn off md5 auth set $MD5Auth to FALSE */
#$ChallengeLife = 480; /*To turn on ChallengeLife set this to 480*/
$ChallengeLife = 0; /*To turn off ChallengeLife set this to 0 */


download
http://pajhome.org.uk/crypt/md5/md5.js

and place it in your include/md5 directory

edit login.php

and change line 115 from
<script src="./include/md5/md5-2.2alpha.js"></script> --
to
<script src="./include/md5/md5.js"></script>

now refresh your browser and retry

let me know if this fixes your issue
