Hi Chris, To help narrow down the issue, keep image extraction disabled and only do a small range of pages (like pages 4-5) on a few of the documents in your set.
This error is usually the product of an abnormal termination of the PDF conversion process. If it succeeds on a few pages of a few pdfs, then there maybe corruption on the PDF that the readers are compensating for. Otherwise, it might be an issue with the configuration file you are using and then try to use a different one to see if it succeeds. -- Alex Ebadirad Senior Consultant, DoD Team MarkLogic Corporation [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Cell +1 928 246 7318 www.marklogic.com<http://www.marklogic.com> ________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of Chris Hamlin [[email protected]] Sent: Friday, December 06, 2013 10:31 AM To: MarkLogic Developer Discussion Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] xdmp:pdf-convert failure Hello, I'm converting about 1000 pdfs to xhtml for some extraction.
