This documentation covers the Adobe PDF Library error code 1073741825, an error that can occur during PDF creation. Below, we explore its causes, input file behavior, and effective resolution steps.
Understanding Error Code 1073741825
Error code 1073741825 can stem from multiple issues, such as corrupted PDF files, improperly formatted documents, or missing font resources. In this scenario, the user reported that some Purchase Orders were successfully created, while others triggered this error. This inconsistency raises questions about the integrity of the files being processed and whether they conform to the formatting requirements necessary for successful rendering.
To resolve this issue, it's essential to analyze both the characteristics of the affected documents and the library’s execution environment. Additionally, the user requested more detailed diagnostics beyond the error message, indicating the need for an in-depth root cause analysis.
Input File Behavior
Although specific details of the input files weren't provided, certain Purchase Orders were reported as problematic. Potential causes include:
Corruption or Improper Definition: Corrupt or improperly defined PDF files may cause the library to fail during rendering.
Missing Boundaries: Documents lacking defined boundaries or containing broken matrices can trigger this error.
Missing Media Box: The media box defines page boundaries; if missing, an error will occur.
Content Length Mismatch: The library requires specific content lengths for DCT-encoded data; mismatches will throw exceptions.
TrueType Font Issues: Proper access to the Resources folder is required to render TrueType fonts, particularly those with Identity-H encoding. Misconfiguration here can lead to errors.
Resolution Summary
To address error code 1073741825, take the following steps:
Verify Document Integrity: Run the problematic PDF document through Acrobat’s Preflight test to identify structural issues that could be causing the error.
Check for Proper Licensing: Ensure the library is properly licensed. Using an unlicensed or incorrect version can lead to errors.
Address Potential Corruptions: If documents are corrupt, attempt to regenerate them through the system or correct formatting issues identified in the Preflight test.
Resource Configuration: Confirm the library is configured to access the necessary Resources folder for rendering TrueType fonts, and verify that the CMAP folder is properly set up.
