A couple of points:

First, what's happening is that your program is dying before it gets the chance to produce any output. In order to see the error message, you need to put

use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
[download]

at the top of your script. That way you'll see the error messages. When I try to run your script on my site, I get various errors from html2ps and Image::Magick. Can you run your script from the command line? If so, and it runs correctly, you've probably got a permissions issue.

Secondly, the 'binmode' line is unnecessary if you're on UNIX. Both the file structure you're using and the HTTP header tell me you're on UNIX, so I'd remove that.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
