Hello

We would like to implement PDF preview generation into our CMS. Some research has revealed that Ghostscript can do this from the command line.

Would it be possible to install Ghostscript on a shared hosting account and would it be possible to run it using a php exec() command?

Thanks

Alex

Hi Alex,

I'm afraid this is not possible on a shared/reseller hosting account. I believe PDF generation via PHP is possible, something like this should suffice: http://www.tcpdf.org/

Thanks,

Andrew
