data = render_to_string(options)
with the following line:
data = Iconv.conv(‘ISO-8859-15//IGNORE//TRANSLIT’, ‘utf-8′, render_to_string(options))

In first place thank you for the great gem/plugin. I'm currently having a problem. I'm trying to apply a body image to my pdf's using the method: pdf.set_option :bodyimage, "report_bg.jpg" It's not that the image doesn't display right, it just doesn't display at all... Any ideas? Tks in advance Hello m8. In first place thank you for the great gem/plugin.

With the GEM installed, passenger refuses to start up with an "Unknown error" and doesn't log anything so debugging is tough. Have you had any successful implementations on Rails 2.2.2 with Passenger? Suggestions on how to proceed? Having some issues with HTMLDoc, Rails 2.2.2 and Phusion Passenger – Apache.
