error with Autoloader

[Gustavo Contreras]

Hi everyone!

I'm new with dompdf, making a tutorial to make a single pdf, I have this:

in composer.json:

require "dompdf/dompdf" : "0.7.x@beta"

In index.php file:

require '../vendor/autoload.php';

require_once '../vendor/dompdf/dompdf/autoload.inc.php';

use Dompdf\Dompdf;

// instantiate and use the dompdf class

$dompdf = new Dompdf();

$dompdf->loadHtml('hello world');

// (Optional) Setup the paper size and orientation

$dompdf->setPaper('A4', 'landscape');

// Render the HTML as PDF

$dompdf->render();

// Get the generated PDF file contents

$pdf = $dompdf->output();

// Output the generated PDF to Browser

$dompdf->stream();

When I run the php page, appears two errors:

 Warning: require_once(C:\wamp\www\ejemplocomposer\vendor\dompdf\dompdf/lib/php-font-lib/src/FontLib/Autoloader.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\wamp\www\ejemplocomposer\vendor\dompdf\dompdf\autoload.inc.php on line 20

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'C:\wamp\www\ejemplocomposer\vendor\dompdf\dompdf/lib/php-font-lib/src/FontLib/Autoloader.php' (include_path='.;C:\php\pear') in C:\wamp\www\ejemplocomposer\vendor\dompdf\dompdf\autoload.inc.php on line 20

I've been searching, but I'm confused, It's necessary modify the sentences require in the top of index.php file?

Thanks in advance.

• Go to https://github.com/PhenX/php-font-lib and download the library.
• Create the dompdf/lib/php-font-lib/classes/ directory.
• In the zip file, take the contents of the src/FontLib/ folder and paste that into your newly created directory.

Did you run composer install or composer update? Composer should take care of any dependencies such as php-font-lib. Also, once you've run composer you only need to include its autoloader, not the one included with dompdf. You only need the dompdf autoloader if you're using the downloadable package.
