You likely missed that I submitted this bug in December *2018*. Back then php-tcpdf and civicrm were both in testing. After more than a year I do not recall the details of this specific bug, but all this was around the deadline when packages would no longer be allowed to re-enter testing and miss the buster release. > Cheers, > Dmitry Smirnov. cu Adrian
