Corrupted PDF

[qtapostate]

Hey! I'm trying to use this library for an enterprise use case (can't name the company at this time). We are trying to convert DOCX files into PDF format so they can be uploaded to AWS. When converting, the command succeeds and writes the PDF, but the PDF is corrupted. I copied the code directly from your example to use in a Typescript module.

import * as libre from 'libreoffice-convert';
// ...

async docxToPdf(fileName: string): Promise<boolean> {
    try {
      await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        const docx = fs.readFileSync(`${fileName}.docx`);
        libre.convert(docx, 'pdf', undefined, (done) => {
          console.log(done);
          fs.writeFileSync(`${fileName}.pdf`, done);
          resolve();
        });
      });
      return true;
    } catch (e) {
      this.logger.error('Encountered error while writing or converting to PDF.');
      this.logger.error(e);
      console.log(e);
      return false;
    }
  }```

I fixed the example. done is only the error object. I fixed this part of your code:

async docxToPdf(fileName: string): Promise<boolean> {
    try {
      await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        const docx = fs.readFileSync(`${fileName}.docx`);
        libre.convert(docx, 'pdf', undefined, (err, done) => {
          if (err) {
            console.log(err);
            return false;
          }
          fs.writeFileSync(`${fileName}.pdf`, done);
          resolve();
        });
      });
      return true;
    } catch (e) {
      this.logger.error('Encountered error while writing or converting to PDF.');
      this.logger.error(e);
      console.log(e);
      return false;
    }
  }
