Most probably you can fix the issue by an explicit specifying of a font face:

H2, BODY {font-family: Times New Roman, Batang, Serif}

Please find attached a test document, which uses no Batang, but only Arial Unicode MS as a fallback font. Arial Unicode MS has no bold version (the same as Batang), and you can see PD4ML successfully synthesizes bold font weight

Hello,

I tried to generate a PDF with a rotated image (rotated with exif metadata only), but the exif orientation metadata doesn’t seems to be interpreted by PD4ML.

Is there any solution for making PD4ML generating a PDF with the rotated image (with exif orientation meta) ?

Thanks

Hi! Unfortunately, we didn’t pay enough attention to this feature because customers never asked for it. Will be available with the next snapshot build

Hello;

We have purchased 6 PD4ML Java Single PRO Licenses. We have our Activation Key available.

Here:
1- How can we activate the license of the library (pd4ml-4.0.19fx1-jakarta) via Eclipse?
2- How can we use the same license for testing locally?
3- If we need a .lic file, how can we obtain it?

Thank you for your support.

Hi! First, thanks a lot for the order!

You can get familiar with the basics of license activation at the following link:

PD4ML v3 to v4 Migration Guide

1. You can put pd4ml.lic file to the root of the Eclipse project (or any other mathod, described by the link above)
2. Yes
3. pd4ml.lic is a simple text file. You can create it and copy the emailed activation code there. Or you can log into your account and click on the license code – you will be prompted to save the file.

Given the scenario of a single development team (<10 people) developing a single web application, being installed on multiple stages (development, testing, customer testing, productive) with multiple instances each.
So the license would actually have to cover local developer machines, CI/CD and the installations mentioned above.

From how I understand the terms, the “Single License” would cover that.
Is this correct?

#38209

To be 100% PD4ML licensing policy friendly, you would need to purchase one license for each deployed production instance of a PD4ML-enabled product, plus an additional one license for development needs.
Instead, we would recommend purchasing one of the DevSite licenses because it does not limit the number of deployments, covers development needs, and has a longer maintenance period.

#38219

A development site license would then also cover multiple teams and applications having a similar setup, right?
But how exactly would a development site be defined for teams working remotely?
Might it be considered as something like a department or a group of teams or so?

#38220

There are PD4ML Enterprise licenses, which cover all company divisions and affiliates. But in your case it is probably redundant.

If the remote teams are working on the same project as the DevSite licensee (actually belong to the same team), the DevSite license is still ok. It is important to us that the licensee appears as only one source of support requests.

But we in no way want to dissuade you from buying an Enterprise license 🙂

Dear Support,

I have the same question on this topic.

We are building a web-based Appian application for a specific public sector customer and there is a need for PDFs generated from docx or html to be accessible (PDF UA). There is one Production Instance (load balanced). We don’t need the source code.

Number of PDFs generated every month could be over 10000 PDFs and possibly expected to increase.

What license should I purchase? This license will be used only for that customer division.

Warm regards
Vijay S

Hi! To be 100% PD4ML licensing policy friendly, you would need to purchase one license for each deployed production instance of a PD4ML-enabled product (in your case for each load-balanced node), plus an additional one license for development needs.
Instead, we would recommend purchasing the DevSite UA license because it does not limit the number of deployments, covers development needs, and has a longer maintenance period.

#38227

Also please note: PD4ML supports HTML-to-DOCX and HTML-to-PDF conversions, but not DOCX-to-PDF

#38228

Thank you for the super quick response.

Follow on Questions –

1. Are there any volume limitations to the number of documents generated with the DevSite UA license?
2. Is the DevSite UA license a perpetual license, or do I need to renew every year?
2. Support for DevSite UA license is 1 year – if I want to have support beyond 1 year, what do I need to do?

Warm regards

1. Are there any volume limitations to the number of documents generated with the DevSite UA license?
No such limits

2. Is the DevSite UA license a perpetual license, or do I need to renew every year?
The license is perpetual, only the maintenance period (email support / software updates) is time-limited. After the period expired you are still eligible to run PD4ML software with any PD4ML version released before the expiration date

3. Support for DevSite UA license is 1 year – if I want to have support beyond 1 year, what do I need to do?
According to the current licensing terms you’ll have a possibility to renew the maintenance to next year for 60% of the license list price. To lock in the current price, you can extend your maintenance period immediately after ordering your license. There are +1 year, +2 year and +3 year options

#38230

Thank you for the information.

Additional question to determine the fitment for our purpose –
1. Is it possible to convert PDF to PDF UA (accessible PDF) using PD4ML
2. If this is true, can you provide/point us to how to use the code, and provide examples of such library usage (if any)

Warm regards
Vijay S
