 * **Notice: has_cap **is being caused in wp-mpdf.php line 437
 * `add_submenu_page('options-general.php', 'wp-mpdf - config', 'wp-mpdf', '8', 
   dirname(__FILE__), 'mpdf_admin');`
 * the ‘8’ is the role identifier and wordpress no longer supports using the numbers,
   you need to use an actual capability.
 * change the ‘8’ to ‘edit_pages’
 * `add_submenu_page('options-general.php', 'wp-mpdf - config', 'wp-mpdf', 'edit_pages',
   dirname(__FILE__), 'mpdf_admin');`
 * Still working on the second error.

 * There should be a new version out (Version 2.12.0) within the next 24 hours. 
   Where all this issues should be fixed.
