I'm using ABCpdf to generate a PDF from HTML.
int id = theDoc.AddImageHtml(html);
It's working fine in my local environment but throws an error when running on an Azure server.
Exception:
Failed to load URL data:text/html;charset=UTF-8;base64,........
What does the error mean and how do I fix this?
Failed to load URL when using ABCpdf on Azure
To use ABCpdf for ABCWebKit engine the minimum configurations options for your app service must be
The runtime stack must set to .NET (preferably .NET 5 or 6).
Use .Net 6 as .Net 5 is about to end (deprecated)
The minimum app service plan supported is Basic B1.
The App Service platform must be 64-bit.
When running in an App Service ABCpdf will require the license key to be installed in your code using the XSettings.InstallLicense method.
Startup.csXSettings.InstallLicense("PASTE YOUR LICENSE HERE");
Failed to load URL data:text/html;charset=UTF-8;base64,........
Your html page may contain indeed, one of "%","" or "#" characters
