Hi,
I am trying to use the Configure PDF from Single DOCX (with Fonts) function following a plugin upgrade. When I set the "Create New Document" property to false the plugin creates a new version (and the document is converted to a pdf) but the extension strangely remains docx. I do not suppose this is the intended behavior, is there a way to force the extension to change in this scenario?
With a previous version of the plugin I did not have this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.
Can you explain how you have configured the smart service? Which document are you passing in as the existing document - are you using the docx that is being converted?
If you are setting the Create New Document parameter to false, then you should be supplying a pdf as the Existing Document, it's not meant for converting the input docx to a pdf file (Appian does not allowing changing of a document extension). The use case for this parameter would be if you were versioning a pdf alongside a versioned docx.
Thank you Michael for getting back. We are indeed passing the docx file as the existing document, it was working with the previous (admittedly quite old) version of the plugin, it was saving the new version as a pdf. It was not the same smart service though as we were not passing the font files. Looks like we need to change our logic slightly then.
