Overview
This version is for Appian 23.2 and above. Cloud customers on a lower version of Appian that want to install this plugin should open a support case. Self-managed customers can find the latest jar for Appian 23.1 and lower version in the folder pre-23.2
Convert, merge and generate DOCX, PDF and XML files automatically in an Appian process
Key Features & Functionality
Function: xsltransform - Transform source XML using XSL Transform
Is there an example HTML document I can use to test the HTML to PDF?
I tried below but receive a null pointer exception (using version compatible for pre-23.2):
<html> <body> <table> <tr> <td>Val1</td> <td>Val2</td> <td>Val2</td> </tr> </table> </body></html>
I am also seeing this pop up and will not be able to leverage the plugin even though it appears to be doing what it should after I click through it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Appian Support Team,We are also getting same pop up while we generated documents by using DOCX Merge smart service.
Getting below error while trying to open downloaded document from Appian after merging with smart service DOCX Merge:
Error:
Word found unreadable content in "test 1.docx". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes.DOCX Merge smart service is working correctly, before merge we are able to download and open the single generated word doc without pop up. After merge of documents we are able to download it but while opening getting the pop up error. Below is the screenshot for reference:
Please let us know if any fix available for this pop up issue. Let us know for more details. Regards,Sandeep
I had the same issue when I used the PDF from single DOCX with Fonts smart service where Japanese and Chinese characters would return hashtags. I ended up getting the characters to show by using the Microsoft Yahwei font in my docX template and including the MS Yahwei font file in the Fonts parameter. I don't have experience with the HTML to PDF smart service but you could consider switching to the PDF from single DOCX with Fonts smart service or there might be a way to configure fonts with the HTML to PDF within your html template
We have an issue converting Japanese characters using the module that converts HTML to PDF. All of the Japanese characters are converted to "####################################". I see that the same issue was reported by another user 2 months ago for the conversion from DOCX.

Hi, have you tried passing a font document that supports both English and Japanese with pdf from docx from single docx with fonts? Something like simsun or ms ya hei?
We are having a weird issue where we are using this plugin to convert docx to PDF. The plugin is working fine in lower environments but making the text bold in the converted PDF in the production environment. We tried deleting and reinstalling the plugin but nothing seems to work. Anyone has any idea how to fix it?
Am currently using the PDF from Single DOCX (with Fonts) smart service of Dynamic Document Generator 1.8.5 versions on cloud Appian version 24.2, We have a requirement to increase indent (white space) before starting of the sentence. But this is not working during the conversion because the spaces are trimmed. Below is the image of word document and the converted PDF document for reference.
Can you please guide me if am missing something to achieve the result?
Thank you!
