FPDF for Debian --------------- The files belonging to this library are installed under /usr/share/php/fpdf/. As /usr/share/php/ is in the default PHP include path, you can write require('fpdf/fpdf.php') to use this class. Of course, you can also use the full path or adjust the include path if desired. The location /usr/share/fpdf/fpdf.php was used previously and is retained for backward compatibility, but this use is deprecated and will be removed sometime in the future. The file install.txt in this directory contains more detailed information about where FPDF expects to find various files. To try out the examples in the tutorial, you need to copy or symlink the documentation directory to a place where the web server can access it and process the PHP, for example your public_html directory. The tutorial files already contain the corrects paths described above. The original upstream distribution contains a few font files as part of the tutorial. These are not included in the Debian package because their copyright status is unclear. Read tutorial 7 about how to obtain these files and use them. -- Peter Eisentraut , 27 August 2006
