I'm trying to run a user-supplied PDF through "Compress PDF". It's refusing and giving me the following error message:
Cannot read JPEG2000 image: Java Advanced Imaging (JAI) Image I/O Tools are not installed
This is happening in the current version of the plug-in and for a valid PDF as far as I can tell (it opens fine in Adobe Reader as well as the Appian document preview field, etc).
Any chance an update could be created to account for this issue?
sorry i never saw this reply before (community doesn't bother send notifications of general replies in these threads, for whatever reason) - the "pdf fields" parameter can just be passed a list of dictionary data where each dictionary has parameters named "name" and "value", where "name" will match the PDF fillable field's internal "name" parameter, and "value" is generally any text value.
I agree the documentation for this plug-in is a little vague as to how that works, though you can get a good idea by looking at the definition for the "PdfField" data type on page 13 of the documentation PDF.

Hello
FillPDF does not support Unicode Cyrillic letters. Only the numerals and the non-Cyrillic letters were passed.
How to enable this option?
Hi ,
we are using fill pdf smart service so we can populate data but is seems that we are doing something wrong.
Here is the exemple of it:
= { Barcode: "123", BarCodeNumber: "456", CustomerFLName: "BDVBDVBCB", CustomerAddress: "BCMNDBSMBBV", Datum: "DDFBVBDFVNBMDFBV", ArchNum: "BFVKJBDBVMBVM", CMPL_Code: " VM VMNMC M M", pozdrav: "BMCNBMBNCB NB", pricina: "VBMDBFVMNVBN", tabela_potpisi: " DC NMMN B", Aktivirajte: "VBMDBVMBM BCN"}
The data field are not fulfill it stay as it is define.
The flatten filed is set to true().
And getPdfFields() is responding correctly:
[name=Barcode, value=], [name=BarCodeNumber, value=], [name=CustomerFLName, value=], [name=CustomerAddress, value=], [name=Datum, value=], [name=ArchNum, value=], [name=CMPL_Code, value=], [name=pozdrav, value=], [name=pricina, value=], [name=tabela_potpisi, value=], [name=Aktivirajte, value=]
So we assume that the template is OK.
Any help is much appreciated.

Hi,
Upgraded plugin to 2.4.1
Unable to convert Tiff image to PDF. Similar error in comments below from 3 months ago.
Also icons disappeared from process monitoring, process activity tab.
Appian Support removed plugin and restarted server.
Icons reappeared.
Appian support reinstalled plugin and icons still available.
And now the pdf to tiff conversion works.
Any ideas on resolving this going forward?
Regards
Hi, Did a bit more digging into my issue. I feel what might be occurring is in my use case the master PDF, pages 1&2, have the same PDF fields defined as those in the pages Im trying to merge with. Ideally I would like to behavior of merge to merge the PDF fields as well as opposed to renaming them. Not sure if this is feasible or not. Before digging into the source can anyone provide insights to my challenge? Is what Im desiring even achievable with the Java libraries used?
Regards,
Bob
Hi, I am using the merge PDF smart service node with PDF pages which have fillable PDF fields where in the resulting PDF document the field names are getting altered in the result fillable PDF. The screen captures below show the field names before the merge and after the merge. After the merge the field names are dummyFieldName1...dummyFieldName##. What would cause the PDF field name changes and is there anything I can do to stop this behavior?
