Hello,

I hope that somebody can help me. I want to save mails as a pdf file.

I use a v server with debian 8 and installed wkhtmltopdf via apt-get. The wkhtmltopdf is located in /usr/bin folder.

The config for save as pdf is set in config.php but i only got error when I try to save a email as pdf.


What do u mean in your documentation with

Quote:
copy the library file under data/system directory, so the path looks like:
data/system/wkhtmltopdf/linux/wkhtmltopdf
?

I have no such directory.

Thank you!

data/system/wkhtmltopdf/linux/wkhtmltopdf is where WebMail attempts to locate the binary file of the converter. You need to create system/wkhtmltopdf/linux subdirectory under data dir and either copy the converter file or create a symlink to it in there.

Thanks Igor,

now it's runnin. The issue was the file permissons, it's only working if the chmod is set to 744, i had 644 before.

But there are 3 things:

#1 It's not working if there is a image included in the mail

#2 The mail header won't be saved in the PDF like it's possible if you print the email.     

#3 German umlauts wont be encoded correctly, e.g. Ä will displayed as ä. If i try to convert a website from command line, there is no issue with the umlauts. I set all to utf-8, but nothing helps..
