OK, new info.
I turned error reporting on in php.ini (DUH!) and now I see this:

Warning: dl(): pdf: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with
module API=20010901, debug=0, thread-safety=0 PHP compiled with module
API=20020429, debug=0, thread-safety=0 These options need to match in
/var/www/html/home/printingautomation/studio/card.bkk on line 1

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pdf_new() in
/var/www/html/home/printingautomation/studio/card.bkk on line 2

Here are lines 1 and 2:

dl("libpdf_php.so");
$pdf = pdf_new();

Now, I copied the libpdf_php.so file over from the old server and kept
the same permissions and ownership.
I rsynced the /usr/share/PDFlib-5.0.3p1-Linux/ over and same ownership
and permissions.
What could the problem be?

Thanks for any help!
Liam
