Re: PDF reader err 109 on output of PDF generator

Folks,

I'm calling the CreatePDF2 method of the GeneratePDFService in a .NET client. I'm trying to convert a Word .DOC file to PDF. The CreatePDF2 method call works, but when trying to open the resulting output with Adobe Reader 10 or IE 9, I get a 109 error. The detail of this error is "Object label badly formatted". Oddly, this output views OK in Chrome (latest version).

PS: I'm using the "Standard" Adobe PDF Settings in Livecycle. Also, when I run the "Create PDF" service from the Livecycle Admin Console, everything works fine.  I've attached the offending PDF output file.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

When you make the call to PDFG from your .net app are you specifying the blob type?  by default LiveCycle returns the value as a file reference, but you can override that and ask it to return the file via base64 or MTOM.

Yes, in the .NET program, the blob type is MTOM. Thanks.
