  • Insomnia Version: 6.5.3
  • Operating System: Ubuntu 18.10

Details

When an endpoint returns a PDF the preview does not render any text.

This is from Insomnia
image

This is the PDF saved using the Save response body option.
image

This PDF was generated from PHP using FPDF and this code

$pdf->SetDrawColor(0, 0, 112);
$pdf->SetFillColor(0, 0, 112);
$pdf->RoundedRect(5, 5, 200, 5, 2, "DF", "12");
$pdf->SetFont("arial", "b", 9);
$pdf->SetTextColor(255);
$pdf->Text(6.5, 8.5, "Such text, very missing, wow");

RoundedRect here is a function we added but the same thing happens when using Rect.

Can you attach the PDF file to this issue?

There isn't much we can do here either way. Insomnia uses pdf.js to render PDFs so, if this is in fact an issue, it should be reported on that project instead.

Sure here's the file. example_file.pdf

If I upload it to the demo viewer page the text renders correctly.

Could it be something to do with the font not being available?

The same problem in Golang PDF generator. That I think it isn't a FPDF problem.

PDF generated with iText also appears "blank" when displayed inside Insomnia. When opened via browser (both Chrome and Firefox) everything shows as expected.

I have this same issue, PDFs generated by Pentaho.

More information - when sending these PDFs via sendgrid API, the emails are also missing the text - but downloading via a browser on the same API has text. 🤔

Same issue here, PDFs are generated using Jasper (iText).

Guys, I updated to version 2020.4.1 and it is working perfectly.

We shipped #2645 in 2020.4.1 which resolves the last few comments, but I'm not sure if it resolves the initial bug report yet. Could somebody validate and report back, please?

I tested the PDF on 2020.5.2 and the text renders correctly. We can close this issue perhaps.
