    Hi,

    Trying to send invoice by mail from invoices screen, I have the following error message :

    Fatal error: Call to undefined method FPDF::GetFontAscender() in /home/H2172/esquipulas.fr/gestion/include/pdf/output.fpdf.class.php on line 163


    I had before a problem with pdf export but fixed it changing the € symbol (not recognized) by Eu. word (not very fine but it works !). Anyway, sending mail is still a problem. Thanks for help.

    Eric

    Hello guys,

    First of all, congrats Justin, SimpleInvoices is a very nice piece of software.

    I just installed/configured it on a test machine running Windows and XAMPP. Everything seems to be working fine including PDF creation.

    BUT when trying to send one of the existing invoices by email, i get this error:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined method FPDF:ender() in C:\xampp\htdocs\simpleinvoices\library\pdf\output.fpdf.class.php on line 163


    I checked the tufat.com forum but i dont know how exactly that applies to us.


    About my test server:
    - XAMPP Version: 1.6.5
    - SimpleInvoices Version: 20070303 stable (i think there's a typo on the About page, should say 2008)



    Regards.

    Thanks Irahim,

    im just in the process of setting up xampp - so i'll give emailing a go and see if i get the same error

    just to confirm
    - making a PDF from a normal invoice works fine
    - its just when you attempt to use the email function when you get this error

    Cheers

    I have this same problem...I'm using XAMPP version 1.6.5.

    Both an older version and the newest version of SI, which I installed tonight, have the same problem: when trying to email, I get the error described above.

    SI is a wonderful program for us, except for this nagging problem; I'd love to get it fixed. :)

    hey guys

    refer: http://simpleinvoices.org/forum/discussion/991/ Ecthelion fixed this by using WAMP instead on XAMMP

    cheers
