This is great to hear. The PDF functionality in Clearspace 2.5.2 is unacceptable. PDF files look absolutely nothing like the source page. Images don't show up. Fonts are wrong. It's a mess.

When is 2.5.5 scheduled?

Hi,

Apologies for the delay in responding to this thread. We have had a number of small issues surrounding PDF generation that have compounded into a larger problem. Currently we are working to have full "View as PDF" functionality delivered in our 2.5.5 release.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

Regards,

Karl

Is there an update to this problem? As it is still occurring in 2.5.3 .

Yes, that will work to disable the View as PDF link for now.

I have another case with a similar problem, so I'll be on top of this and getting back to you soon.

Karl

That sample was from creating a document with just a title and one line of text. I've never seen PDF generation work in the versions we've installed - 1.7, 2.1 and 2.5.2. However, all those installs have been running on windows xp and tomcat. Hopefully that may be a clue to why it happens.

I saw from previous posts that there were issues with the default encoding, and a fix was made to get this working on windows 2003, could it be related to this issue? Or could there be differences in the default libraries in xp and linux installs? I am running on 1.6.0_07 version of java.

In the short term do I just need to remove the View as PDF entry from the ui-components.xml file to remove this link?

Thanks for looking at this.

Hi,

Unfortunately we are still having some issues with PDF generation in 2.5.2. The particular issue you are pointing to may be related to a fix that was put in for 2.5.3. However, I would like to monitor the issue to make sure that we get this taken care of as soon as possible.

It appears that you are seeing this with a very simple test message, is this correct?

Have you had any success with PDF creation anywhere else in the application?

Thanks for including the logs, that is very helpful.

Regards,

Karl

I understand there were some issues with this code that were fixed in 2.5.x, but 'm still experiencing the problem on any of my documents in the site. The error in the localhost log is :-
