prawn - import image from URL

I got this working for me:

image open("https://driver.mbpgroup.eu/images/mbp_logo.jpg"), position: :right, width: 250

I could NOT get this to work for me (Prawn documentation):

image "https://driver.mbpgroup.eu/images/mbp_logo.jpg", position: :right, width: 250

you need to do the following -

require "open-uri"

Prawn::Document.generate(INSERT_YOUR_PDF_FILENAME_HERE) do 
   image open(INSERT_YOUR_URL_HERE)
end

Refer to http://rubydoc.info/gems/prawn/0.12.0/frames for more details.
