Will not convert PPTX to PNG on Ubuntu server #49

I am working on a API that takes fetches PPTX assets, writes them to the server's local storage, then converts the PPTX to PNGs that can be used as thumbnails of each slide. When testing locally on a Mac, it works as intended(minus some coloration issues). However when installing on Ubuntu server, it hangs up at the step of creating the intermediate PDF. LibreOffice, ImageMagick and poppler-utils are all installed. Is there a better way to see why the PDF isn't being created?

Solved: looks like it was an issue with the LibreOffice install on both my Docker Image and my Server. Followed steps here
