FPDF multicell alignment not working

Question

I have this multicell in my pdf:

$pdf->multicell(115,6,$name,1,0,'L',1);

But it turns out that the text is right aligned instead of left aligned.

I found the same problem here but I don't get his solution, what does "I had to set any font" mean? I can't comment on his answer because my reputation's not enough to give comments.

Have you set a font (using `$pdf->SetFont(...)`) before calling `$pdf->MultiCell(...)`? — Abrixas2, Sep 18 '13 at 06:41

The method MultiCell gets at most 6 arguments, not 7. The problem here is, that you supply 0 for alignment, not 'L'. See the documentation for details.
