We heavily use aws and heroku. We dont like managing windows server. Ive read some stuff on the forums here about people having to install open office etc to get pdf generation to work.

Has anyone got this working on Heorku or know if its possible.

Hello,

Phpdocx works with any server that can run PHP. About the conversion plugin, you need to install LibreOffice (or OpenOffice), so we recommend using a VPS or a dedicated server. Some shared hosting allows to install external aplications as well.

To use the conversion plugin with Heroku, please check this information to install LibreOffice:
