[Cartoweb-users] exportPdf crashes

[Oliver Christen]

this is only a guess but I would say the FPDF pdf engin is on its knee when 
handling huge GIF images.
im not sure if gif are simply integrated in the pdf or if they are converted 
into jpeg or png, the convertion could be the cause of the problem.
Have you monitored your system ressources usage when generating pdf ?

regards
Oliver
