Convert file to pdf lost formatting all of a sudden

Posted on by fransk1 71

Good day,

 

I have a flow that converts an html file to pdf. This has been working until Friday last week.

 

This morning all the formatting is incorrect. Anyone also experiencing this ?

 

I generate the HTML code from MS Word Template. Use it in a Compose control. this has been working fine but is all of a sudden broke.

 

See attached screenshots.

 

Could it be that MS did an update again and broke things ? See uploaded screenshots

 

Appreciate any feedback

    I have an ongoing ticket with MS on this issue.
     
    Experiencing exactly the same issue with HTML to PDF conversion. 
     
    Formatting all over the place.  It doesn't respect any HTML formatting at all. 
     
    Very frustrating.  Been told issue has been resolved and is being rolled out, however I still see no evidence of this.

    Yes, few months ago they changed the PDF engine from PDFSharp to Chromium, and they have changed it back so I'm really annoyed as I rewrote all my stuff to work on it because formatting and now its all broken again - how about keep both and make connectors for both since PDF sharp is A4 and chromium is Letter??

    Hi Franskl, what do you mean "strip down your code to the bare minimum".
     
    On our side, it still not working
