HTML to PDF bigger images
I use the HTML to PDF node, it works fine with images of size 1024x1024. I tested 32 pages (a book can have 60 pages), where each page have an image. But, I generate pdf for printing books with lulu.com. I need images of 4096x4096 to match the lulu's requirements. With that size, it generates the pdf, but when I try to open it, I get 'Error Failed to load PDF document'. Is there a limit on your server for Puppeteer or something?

cc @Deepanshu, can you help checking if there is any limit on puppeteer to process images with larger size? Or something we can update in puppeteer pdf runner?
@Francois can you share the details of parameter you are trying to use for the HTML to PDF node?
The pdfOptions for Pupeteer? Something like that:
const pdfOptions = {
width: '8.75in',
height: '8.75in'
};
here's the node logic: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v5LBRb_APotbxb67KmOVLrIbZgohIxePmxQfQzuXsw8/edit?usp=sharing
or if it helps, my Buildship link: https://buildship.app/p/buildship-0i2pvh/workflow/n8jY3VGNdhz2xxOS22j4
@Francois can you share sample input for
data as mentioned in your node logic?Yes just added in the doc
@Deepanshu let me know if you need anything else to test, thanks!
No need to find a solution, I use images of 3072x3072 now and it works fine!
@Deepanshu it's me again... I don't understand, it used to work with 3072x3072 images but now it doesn't. If I have 15 images, it works when it's the same image repeated (it would never happen but I wanted to test if my link is the problem, it appears it's not), but when I have 15 different images, the pdf link is generated but I can't open it.
Updated the doc so you can test it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v5LBRb_APotbxb67KmOVLrIbZgohIxePmxQfQzuXsw8/edit?usp=sharing

Buildship PDF node logic
I'm really close to launch the beta of my software, would be great if Buildship don't break in the future with the pdf generations, I want to be sure it will work no matter the number of images and pdf
Hey @Francois , can you please send a support request through buildship app with these details? Also, include the discord message link!.
Perfect, just sent it
hey! It's been almost a week, did you find something?
Hi @Francois, yes, we have progress on the above issue, we'll be releasing the updated version for this soon, thank you for your patience.
No prob, thanks!
Hey @Francois , the issue occurs with the invalid pdf because the puppeteer timeouts when setting the html-content for different-images-case, the issue will be resolved after passing custom
navigationTimeout param in request-body.
Let me know if above works!I have slightly updated your node-logic^
Thanks! But weird, just tested it and I still get the same thing, it generate a link but 'Failed to load PDF document' error message
Can you try to log the
response and share the data?
