    Is it possible to transform an existing document (for example, one I've merged with others) into a PDF or ODF format? So I'd be reading in an existing document, then transform it back out to anther doc flavor.

    Can't seem to get it to work.

    Hello,

    What version of phpdocx are you using?.

    Regards.

    PHPDOCX 3.0 (just bought it 3 days ago.)

    I can see my LibreOffice running in headless mode, netstat -na on port 8100.

    When I run the "Transform.php" I also see two new connections get established to this port, so it looks like PHPDOCS is talking to OOffice. But nothing happens. No document gets created.

    same result for pdf, rtf or odf - nothing seems to work here.

    Hello,

    Please do a quick test: run Transform.php example in CLI mode and paste your output.

    Regards.

    Here you go... appears the RTF stuff will get created, but not the odt, pdf, html or doc

    OpenSuse 12.1
    Linux linux-1too 3.1.10-1.16-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jun 27 05:21:40 UTC 2012 (d016078) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

    Libre Office 3.5

    libpng12.so is installed... but libpng14.so is the one that is available in my /usr/lib directory.

    Also tried upgrading to phpdocx 3.1 today. Same issues. Same error as below.

    Hello,

    How did you installed libpng12.so.0 library?. Maybe you didn't update your shared libraries cache using ldconfig?.

    Regards.
