Hi Eldy,

I am trying to upgrade from 2.9.0 to 3.0.0 but have some trouble updating my previous modifications I made.

Basically I was using “pdf\_expedition\_merou.modules” and transformed this into an A4 size with some other modifications.

Now whatever I try I cannot get the A4 size, nomatter what I try with the dimensions the page stays on a horizontal format…

Have attached my modifications and hope you or somebody else can take a look to see if you can see the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Did you do this into constructor:

```
	$this-\>page_largeur = 210;
	$this-\>page_hauteur = 297;
	$this-\>format = array($this-\>page_largeur,$this-\>page_hauteur);

```

Then to build pdf instance, you do  
$pdf=pdf\_getInstance($this-\>format);

Hi Eldy,

Thanks for your help.  
Adding $pdf=pdf\_getInstance($this-\>format); did the trick, thank you.
