Why we are getting this error?

@hnk15 This error message tells that you need to install a local certificate when using curl to call a https url. Take a look on how to install it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28858351/php-ssl-certificate-error-unable-to-get-local-issuer-certificate

Anyway, we just added a new function $ilovepdf->verifySsl(true). If you set it to false the curl connection won't verify anymore the remote certificate and you won't get an error. But we strongly recommend always to set it to true always for security reasons. Please update to the 1.1.3 version of the library.

Ok I've solved this issue for me. Hopefully others experiencing the same problem might benefit from me sharing this.

It's a php config issue.

It's easy to fix (php 5.3.7 or higher) - Download a list file with an up-to-date certificate authorities, and add this setting to your php.ini curl.cainfo=cacert.pem

Please remember the required to be an absolute path. Restart your web server, and it'll work !

Hope that helps thanks!
