Hi!
I´m trying to get this module work, and I´m pretty much stucked with the symlinks step.
Before try that on my shared server, I wanted to try and install this module on my localhost inside my Windows XP installation.
Is there any "manual" way to do that? I mean... I´m pretty much clueless about this step...
Please if someone could help me out with a clue here, I would very much appreciate it!
Thanks!

There was a documentation bug for the Symlinks. Apologies. The appropriate path is at - http://drupal.org/node/509346#comment-1813482
Let me know if there's still problems creating symlinks for Windows XP platform.

Rosamunda commentedHia again :)
Thank you very mucho for replying to me, I´ve forgot to mention that I´ve read that issue, and taked care of the names of the files. Thanks!
Anyway, After re-reading over and over again the readme, I´ve noted that my version of imgareaselect was 0.9.1 instead of the old 0.4.2. The newer one has folders, wich weren´t in the older.
So, I´ve installed the older to follow the instructions carefully, and I´ve installed the module, but with this errors:
I must add that I´ve created the symlink file manually, simply cloning the
jquery.imgareaselect-0.4.2.min.jsinside the imgareaselect-0.4.2 folder (inside of pdfstamper/js folder) to a new file calledjquery.imgareaselectinside pdfstamper/js folder.I´ve double checked the installations of the other modules (specially the ImageMagick installation, wich is working).
Probably because of that error, when I tried to create a pdf stamp document this appears:
Again, thank you for your help and guidance!!!

yasheshb commentedhi..
does the apache server have write permissions to the sites/default/files\private\pdf_previews ? also thanks for the above information.
we need to improve the error checking and appropriate message display on windows platform. (is this XP or Vista ?)

Rosamunda commentedHi again!
I´ll check that again, but I think it has the permissions.
I´ve installed it on Windows XP SP3.
Thanks!

Rosamunda commentedHi again!
I´ve installed on a test hosting this module, and couldn´t use Magick module (have to use GD2 because they said Image Magick is old and outdated, and bláh bláh), and this is the output that I´ve got (I´ve checked the chmod and just in case tested with 777, with all possible permissions:
Comment #7
Rosamunda commentedSo far, I´ve noted that:
= The folder sites/default/files\private\pdf_previews is not created by the module, so I´ve created it manually widh chmod 666.
= The .htaccess module is not created by the module either, so I´ve created it and added it inside that /pdf_previews folder (and tried it inside the /private folder aswell), with this code inside:
And I still get the error.

Rosamunda commented:S September 2009?
I´m so sorry! I´ve never read you email! But I know that it cannot have gone inside spam folder. So this is weird...
I know that I didn´t solve this problem at that time. I´ll try to install it again and check out if the problem remains (I´ve got a new installation of Drupal that requires this module).
I´m very sorry for not answering you and I sincerely do apologise, yash!
