Hey all,
My specs:
Ubuntu 12.10.
Prince 8.1 rev 5.
PHP-FPM 5.4.15 w/ Nginx

Here is my problem:

        $a = '<b> heyhey </b>';
	$prince = new PrinceWrapper('/usr/bin/prince');
	$b = $prince->convert_string_to_passthru($a);	
	var_dump($b);

This returns true, it works. So far, so good.

        $a = '<b> heyhey </b> <b> WHAT </b>';
	$prince = new PrinceWrapper('/usr/bin/prince');
	$b = $prince->convert_string_to_passthru($a);	
	var_dump($b);

This returns false, it doesn't work .

I have used Prince in the past (v7) and this never happened. I'm trying to convince my boss to shell out the cash to buy the licenses but I can't even generate a simple invoice =|...


Thanks

Wow, I just wrote

$prince->setHTML(true);

And it seems to work... I thought it was on by default. =| Well.. this is solved.

Sorry for the inconvenience! This issue affects the convert_string methods, which currently default to XML. We plan to change the default to HTML in the next release of Prince, it's more sensible.

Prince 9 is now available, and we have changed the default behaviour to assume that unnamed documents are HTML, not XML. It makes sense.
