Getting GeneratePdfServiceImpl dependency error while using com.adobe.aemfd:aemfd-client-sdk:6.0.718.jar

[Minion_J]

I have a requirement to convert the non-PDF assets to PDF assets. As per the suggestion i had installed aem-service-pkg-6.5.20.0.zip with adobe-aem-forms-addon-6.5.20.0-windows.zip.

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-65/content/forms/install-aem-forms/osg...

I was trying to use below dependency for my custom implementation class (aemfd-client-sdk.png) to use GeneratePdfService Interface, but it doesn't have the GeneratePdfServiceImpl class in the jar file, so I am facing dependency error. Please see attached [dependency error.png]

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.adobe.aemfd</groupId>
    <artifactId>aemfd-client-sdk</artifactId>
    <version>6.0.718</version>
</dependency>

As per adobe-aemfd-pdfg-core.png I need to use this jar dependency to make use of GeneratePdfServiceImpl class. I have also configured the required environment variables in the Dev author env of linux system. Can anyone suggest how I can proceed on this to fix the error.

HI @Minion_J ,

As per the dependency error screenshot, could you check if the Apache OpenOffice is installed and  configured correctly ?

Thanks,

Yes. Apache OpenOffice is installed and configured. Now I am facing the different error. Attaching the error logs for reference. Thanks for your Support.

Now the error is from  com.threeShare.thermokingAssetshare.core.services.impl.AssetServiceImpl.processDocument(AssetServiceImpl.java:442) 

Debug it further to resolve the same. For conversion some parameters are mandatory and some are optional. Check the below javadoc . It may help you in resolving the same :-

Attached the code snippet. at line# 442 the first two parameters are mandatory params. at line# 440 I am creating the Document object by passing the InputStream as a parameter instead of passing the File parameter. In one of the references, they had tried passing the File input as a parameter. Let me give a try with this.

Hope we may get the same Document object though we use InputStream as a parameter/File as a parameter.

What do you say?

I got to know from few sources that DocumentConversion exception is known issue for non-PDF assets with SP19 and SP20 itseems. So, it was mentioned that the fix for the issue will be available in SP21 service pack release itseems.
