  • Hello,

    We are experiencing an error in our production environment "org.docx4j.openpackaging.exceptions.Docx4JException: Exception exporting package", after upgrading Appian to 22.3 and the plugin to 2.0.1.  I see Sasi S mentioned this a month ago, but don't see a response other than a new version.  Is there something else we should upgrade to get this functionality to work?
