PDF Utilities

Hello,

I'm facing issue using the add image to pdf/insert image in pdf on Appian 24.4 version. Both smart service trows the same error. I'm using version 9.0.4

Tomcat log shows this entry:

With the above example, how would you get the unique page number for each page? I am trying to implement somthing like "Page "&{ac!StartPage+1}&" of "&getnumberofpages(pv!uploadedFile), but I cannot seem to get the unique page figured out.

• Managed files in Insert Image Smart services.

• Closed the documents created in Finally block.

• Minor Bug fixes

• Fixed Header and Footer visibility issue in ‘Add Header Footer’ Smart service.

Hi Oliver,

Please open a Support case and we can provide you the latest version compatible for 22.1. 

Thanks,

Hi Vuram team,

Thank you for making this plugin available, and for the consistent updates - it's a really useful utility!

I'm working with a team that are on a much older version of Appian and upgrading will take a while. Is it possible to get an older version of the PDF Utilities plugin that was built for 22.1 please (such as 7.1.3)? I'm aware we'll lose the later enhancements you've made and that it's available as-is - we won't expect any support on that version of the plugin.

All the best,

Oliver

• Deprecated Add Header and Footer and Add Watermark Text smart services.
• Updated Add Header and Footer and Add Watermark Text smart services to support multiple font fallbacks.
• Updated libraries.

Hi  ,

Good Day!!

Our plugin now includes this functionality in the Version 8.2.0.

Thanks & Regards,
Snehasri S.
