Any suggestions of what to do will be appreciated. When trying to create a PDF I get the following error.

An uncaught Exception was encountered

mbstring extension … must be loaded

The mbstring extension is missing from your PHP installation

Thanks will check that and revert back.

mbstring was already enabled on my server. Any other suggestion, as this is getting a bit beyond my skill level.

Solved. Had to have the hosting company enable the mbregex on the server.

PHP mbstring (including mbregex, which needs to be explicitly enabled in some environments) and gd extensions have to be loaded.
