This looks like an external executable, which would be compiled for a
certain OS (or is it Java?).

If you use something like FPDF, which is just a PHP class, then it's
pure PHP and independent of what the server OS is. This is the one I
use because our server space is rented and we can't install whatever we
want on it; however it is a bit slow.
