Toc generation hangs

Hi guys,

I use TOCGenerator class from new 3.3.0 release. It worked fine but today it hangs all the time. I had to dig into the sources and found out that it calls the service
Code: Select all
http://converter-eval.plutext.com:80/v1/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/convert


Any ideas when the service starts working again?

Thanks for the heads up; I've started the service again.

You should however, run your own instance locally! Download links are at http://converter-eval.plutext.com/

This uses the technology described at pdf-output-f27/higher-fidelity-pdf-output-now-available-t2117.html

From announces/docx4j-3-3-0-released-t2381.html

The instance of PDF Converter at converter-eval.plutext.com is used by default, but you can (and should!) install it locally; installers are available at http://converter-eval.plutext.com/

To use your own instance, set docx4j property, eg:

Code: Select all
com.plutext.converter.URL=http://converter-eval.plutext.com:80/v1/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/convert


(substitute your own IP address; port is typical 9016)

You can do ToC page numbering updates using your own instance at present without buying a license (although buying a license gets you support). At some point in the future, a license might be required
