Hi @Tanushree Maiti / @pr8172510 

Its published and completely ootb template but still facing issue.

Hi @CaptainG 

 

Can you try this option

 

1. Clear your browser cache or try it in incognito window/private browser.

 

2. If  following kind of CSS added in the template

<style>

@page {size: landscape}

</style>

 

refer: Error Message: Cannot invoke "java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray()" because "pdfOS" is null 

2. If not working , can you try this

changing the system property  com.snc.pdf.deployment.mode from "SERVICE" to "INSTANCE"
