[Plugin: WP Post to PDF] Error: TCPDF ERROR: [Image] Unable to get image

I’ve uninstalled this plugin, please ignore this question, or answer it for others searching. Thank you.

That means the /wp-content/plugins/wp-post-to-pdf/tcpdf/cache/ directory is not writable. Please change its permission so that it can be writable by script. That will solve your issue.

Neerav, I get the same error but without the image file location.
Only looks like this:

“TCPDF ERROR: [Image] Unable to get image:”

I didn’t have this problem with this plugin before

UTF8 filenames (images) creates a TCPDF error as mentioned. This is a problem where wordpress saves images and stores the filename with utf8 but the server does not. This makes the function _parsejpeg($file) to fail in tcpdf.php

I’m actually getting this error in the admin, when I create or delete a post. The post is still created or deleted, but the error shows up systematically. The cache folder is writable. The PDFs download just fine.

ideas?
thnx!

So I’ve narrowed it down to images with a file path that leads to to wp-content/uploads. All images that are in the theme do not cause a conflict.

The weird thing is that the images in question aren’t even uploaded yet. And I’m experiencing this in the back-end. Changing permissions on the cache folder only changes how the error displays, with or without an image file path. I’ve also tried creating a conditional statement so that if the image is empty, the image doesn’t display at all, but that doesn’t seem to help.

Again, my PDFs were being generated just fine. But I had been working with an example CPT that was already compiled. We discovered this problem when going to create new posts. Obviously, deactivating the plugin every we create a post is not an option! ??

TLTL: did you come up with a fix for your encoding theory?

Am also looking into the possibility of some kind of hot linking problem…waiting on a host response…

thnx,

Ok, got it sorted. It didn’t like me having my <img> tags in the template when the images weren’t defined (even though it worked on some). So I put them directly into the variable and it resolved the error *whew*!
