Please provide a link to a minimal sample where the issue is reproducible:
import React,{useEffect,useRef} from “react”;
import WebViewer from “@pdftron/webviewer”;
import { Button } from “primereact/button”;
const ApmIDP =()=>{
const viewer = useRef<any>(null);
const vwr_ins = useRef<any>(null);
//export PDF
const saveBufferAsPDFDoc =(buffer:any,filename:string)=>{
const blob =new Blob([buffer],{type:'application/pdf'})
const url =URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href=url;
a.download=filename;
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.click();
document.body.removeChild(a);
URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
}
useEffect(() => {
WebViewer(
{
path: '/lib/webviewer',
initialDoc: '/doc/PTTX1.pptx',
isReadOnly:true,
enableAnnotations:false,
fullAPI: true
},
(viewer.current as any),
).then((instance) => {
vwr_ins.current=instance;
});
}, []);
const ConvertAndMerge = async ()=>{
const {Core} = vwr_ins.current;
try {
debugger;
const buf= await Core.officeToPDFBuffer('/doc/PPTX1.pptx')//Convert, blank??
const blob =new Blob([buf],{type:'application/pdf'})
saveBufferAsPDFDoc(blob,'save.pdf')//export PDF
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
}
}
return (
<>
<Button onClick={ConvertAndMerge}>Test</Button>
<div className="webviewer" ref={viewer} style={{height: "100vh"}}></div>
</>
)
