 * Hello,
    the “status” tab says:
 * Allow remote stylesheets and images
    Value: true Stauts: allow_url_fopen disabled
 * What does this mean and do I have to change something? Or could there be any 
   security problems?
    Many thanks in advance!

 * Hi! This is not an issue on most installs. It just means that if you load stylesheets
   or images over HTTP, that it won’t be available in the PDF. But that only applies
   to customizations because all normal CSS and images are loaded directly from 
   the server.
 * Hope that helps!
