you know I probably not, But I thought each time through the pdf objects where distroyed?? I figured out where its failing, just not sure what I am doing wrong, you are probably on to something with the $pdf object, but not sure how to do it here is code where the problem lies:

my $ChartImageName = "$tmpPath/VeTCOChart.png";

setImage($ChartImageName, 110/mm, 165/mm, 95.25/mm, 79.375/mm);

sub setImage{
    my $photo_file=$pdf->image_png($_[0] ,-lossless => 1);
    my $photo = $page->gfx;

    ## add photo to pdf include cordinates and size - image($photo, x,
+ y, width, hieght);
    $photo->image($photo_file, $_[1], $_[2], $_[3], $_[4]);

}

setimage call is where its failing! I open a pdf template so this is how I declare my pdf object.

my $pdf = PDF::API2->open($Template) or print "PDF Object is failing o
+r NULL";
    my $page = $pdf->openpage(1);
