Appian team is this certified for latest Appian version 25.2 and 25.3?

Hi team, the getpdfmetadata rule is throwing errors in for plugin version 3.2.0 and Appian 25.2 . The same rule is working for plugin version 2.5.2 . Error message: "Expression evaluation error at function 'getpdfmetadata': Error: End-of-File, expected line at offset 1025".
Could you please check this issue? Is there someone else who is having the same issue?

I've tried to use the Create PDF smart service to convert a DocX file to a PDF, but this results in the following error when I provide a source document in the contents field:

[embed:dc8ab71f-3b98-42d9-b0f6-e21e02a0f8e2:9f8b8612-f56d-4759-b66c-6fccc179b40e:type=text&text=%5BAn%20error%20occured%20while%20trying%20to%20verify%20the%20Contents%20input%3A%20class%20java.lang.Long%20cannot%20be%20cast%20to%20class%20%5BLjava.lang.Object%3B%20%28java.lang.Long%20and%20%5BLjava.lang.Object%3B%20are%20in%20module%20java.base%20of%20loader%20%27bootstrap%27%29%5D]

The Contents fields accepts "Any type", but there's nothing that I can provide that will enable this to work. I know there's a Source Document field, but this is optional, where as Contents is not.

Is anyone else having this error, or were you able to get this to work without problems?

Hi,

It would be good to add a functionallity that transforms a base64 text string to PDF document.

Also, Merge PDF outputs a 1.4 PDF version for result. How can I configure it in a way that the output is a 1.7 PDF?
