.Hello.

Our company has encountered an issue with this plugin. It works well in most cases, but we have a few cases of HTML documents not converting to PDF correctly.

We are currently using the latest version of the plug-in 3.0.1.

The error message we receive is not very descriptive of the issue. We have tried various changes to our documents, but have not found any consistent solution that resolves the problem.

This is the message we receive: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 1 out of bounds for length 1

Can anyone provide insight into this error message? Would it be helpful to include the HTML that we are attempting to convert?

Thank you

Hello,

The new version of this plugin now contains a timeout but there are cases where it still fails and the conversion thread does not appear to be terminated correctly when the timeout is reached and continues running indefinitely blocking the engine. Unblocking the thread can be solved only with the restart of the application server.

Could you please check this issue?

If anyone else has this issues, the fix is to use data-docid instead of appianDocId, until a fix is released.

We are having issues with images not displaying in the pdf when using the smart service "HTML to PDF (Page Number and Custom Fonts)".

The same images display fine when using "HTML to PDF" smart service.
