Hello Anushrid,
are you storing the xml in a variable? if that is the case would you be able to pass the xml directly to the node and don't store it into a variable or at least put it as hidden? (i would prefer not to have the variable)
I would recommend as well to create the xml using a nested CDT Structure and then use the toxml function directly in the node.
hope this helps

Hey Everyone - I'm attempting to use the PDF from HTML Smart Service with a very simple HTML file that includes a base64-encoded image:
<html>
<body>
<div>Image from String: <img src="data:image/jpeg;base64,<MY IMAGE DATA>"/></div>
