Bug Fixes 



Bug



Known Issue



Resolution



4807



When adding a watermark to a PDF/A conversion, an error message was returned and the conversion failed. The error log recorded the conversion error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".



Conversions that include watermarks now produce valid PDF/A files as expected.



4808



When a PDF to PDF/A conversion failed, an output PDF was still generated in the output location. With an API conversion, an appropriate error code was returned indicating a failure, but a PDF was still written to the output location.



When a conversion to PDF/A fails, the source file is now moved into the errors folder, and a PDF is not generated in the output location.



4810



Illegal characters in a file path caused Office Verifier to crash.



Illegal characters in a file path now result in an error message.
