Extension talk:PdfHandler/Archive

More info Please
I would really love to use this extension but its hard with some of the documentation missing :(

What I have tracked down is that it looks like someone wants it installed into wikisource

Here is the bug report https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11215

An example of the extension is here http://www.xarax.eu/wiki/Datei:110.pdf which looks very cool!

I'm trying to gather more data on this extension. Anyone out there get it to work? How? Thanks!

Error when uploading
When uploading a PDF (but no problem uploading normal images), I've got this error message on MediaWiki 1.10.0:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method Image::getPath in D:\www\mediawiki\extensions\PdfHandler\PdfHandler_body.php on line 101

If that helps, this the end of LocalSettings.php: require_once('extensions/PdfHandler/PdfHandler.php'); $wgPdfProcessor = "D:\gs\gs8.60\bin\gswin32.exe"; $wgPdfPostProcessor = $wgImageMagickConvertCommand; $wgPdfInfo = "D:\xpdf\pdfinfo.exe";

Is this because this extension requires MediaWiki 1.12.0?

 * This extension needs 1.11 at least, see the infobox in the upper right corner --Raymond


 * For version 1.10 you can replace $image->getPath with $image->getImagePath at line 101 --62.117.121.56 11:38, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * You should replace your double quotes with single quotes (e.g. change $wgPdfProcessor = "D:\gs\gs8.60\bin\gswin32.exe"; to $wgPdfProcessor = 'D:\gs\gs8.60\bin\gswin32.exe';, otherwise PHP will do funny things to your backspaces in the path. --Tbleher 13:17, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Demo Page
Can I see a demo of this before I spend time installing it? I'd be happy to test, but I'm curious if it will suit my needs.
