Hi all, having a issue trying to create a PDF of a custom record the code im using is
Copy code
objScriptParams.param_generate_pdf_letter = 'CUSTTMPL_181_102'
                    var renderer = render.create();
                    var myContent = renderer.addRecord({
                        template: 'fred',
                        record: record.load({
                            type: 'customrecord_sf_inv_out_email',
                            id: parseInt(customRecordID)
                        })
                    });
                    renderer.setTemplateByScriptId(objScriptParams.param_generate_pdf_letter);
                    var letterPDF = renderer.renderAsPdf();
The template now just has this is in it
Copy code
<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE pdf PUBLIC "-//big.faceless.org//report" "report-1.1.dtd">

<pdf>
<body header="nlheader" header-height="10%" footer="nlfooter" footer-height="20pt" padding="5mm 15mm 5mm 15mm" size="A4">
 BOB
</body>
</pdf>
The error i am getting is:
Copy code
type: "error.SuiteScriptError",
   name: "UNEXPECTED_ERROR",
   message: "An unexpected SuiteScript error has occurred",
on the renderer.renderAsPdf(); line. Has anyone got any ideas

@Tim Pilgrim did you try testing without the 
renderer.addRecord
part?
I'm not getting any errors on my end

i did test without the addrecord and it worked,
but I need the record for it work.... (when i put the real pdf template back)

Strange. If you can't figure it out, workaround would be read the fields in your script and as as a custom data source
t
and yeah when I run it in the debug it "works" doesn't error doesn't save the file to the file cabinet
but yeah custom data source might be the way to go

hi Tim, your custom template CUSTTMPL_181_102, what is it based on?
d
I also suspect that record can contain values that cannot be parsed like & or something else.
t
it was the customise of the default one for that custom record
