ndnalibi has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am writing a perl CGI script to create a PDF. Everything was working fine. I added some code related to fonts and now I'm getting the following error: Can't locate object method "image_jpg" via package "PDF::API2" at /var/www/cgi-bin/upl.cgi line 308., referer: http://tweak/font_test/ I'm not really looking for an answer, but more of a hint. I want to understand this. 
use CGI; # load the CGI.pm module
use DBI; # load database module
use DBD::mysql; # load mysql driver
use PDF::API2;

[download]
my $jpeg = $pdf->image_jpeg('/var/www/html/font_test/Pumpkins/backgrou
+nd.jpg');
                        my $png = $pdf->image_png('/var/www/html/font_
+test/Pumpkins/foreground.png');
                        my $tag = $pdf->image_jpg('/var/www/html/font_
+test/Pumpkins/tagline.jpg');

    Hi ndnalibi,

    You mistyped the image_jpeg method as image_jpg (missing the e) in your second call the the method, or am I missing anything?

      themage : That's correct. You didn't miss asomething. jpg ne jpeg has bit me before as well.

        Thanks so much. I guess it's true that sometimes you're too close to the problem to see the obvious.
