Description:
------------
I'm getting a lot of warning/errors from pdf related functions after upgrading to php 4.4.0. It appears that at least some of the changes reported in the documentation were backported from version 5 to version 4.4.

Compare for instance the following warning:
PHP Warning:  pdf_stringwidth() expects exactly 4 parameters, 2 given in MYFILE on line MYLINE

with what is written in the online docs at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pdf-stringwidth.php

float pdf_stringwidth ( resource pdfdoc, string text, int font, float size )
Returns the width of text using the last font set by pdf_setfont(). If the optional parameters font and size are specified, the width will be calculated using that font and size instead. Please note that font is a font handle returned by pdf_findfont(). Parameters font and size were optional before PHP 5.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

It depends also on PDFlib version. With PDFlib version >= 5, no parameters are optional. I documented that.
