Cannot create PDF with extension EExcelview

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Please help:

I use the extension EExcelview for the first time. I use version 1.8.0 of PHPExcel together with this extension.

In the extension folder, I have 2 files:


EExcelview.php 

PHPExcel.php

and this directory:


PHPExcel

I got it to work: I am able to export successfully a CGridView to CSV and to XLS format, but I cannot get PDF export to work.

You can use FPDF to create pdf files: http://fpdf.org/

I installed the mPDF library (Version 6.0) and set an absolute path to it in settings.php

That solved the problem.
