Description

mpdf seems to faill to include images in the generated pdf file when you use:

  • some self-signed https certificate, or
  • a valid one but issued from a certification agency (like from a local public administration, in our case at work) which is not recognized by your browser by default unless you import a specific authority file in the right place (and I don't know how to do that for mpdf).


I wish there was some way to tell mpdf to avoid checking https certificate validity, like the option you can have in many other programs (wget, curl, git, ...). If that is possible, then a new option should be added in Tiki UI to let the tiki site admin enable it in those known use cases in which you need that feature.

As an example, that would have allowed to use mpdf successfully in the last couple of years at work. And we still can't use it normally due to this issue.
