SidVicious position: running(header) is now causing "PDF generation failed. Check the page markup is valid" error in Visualforce page
Hi guys,
In the past, I've used the style "position: running(header)" normally, and did not cause any issues. It rendered the PDF perfectly. But now, I am encountering "PDF generation failed. Check the page markup is valid" whenever I include the line in my markup. I was able to identify the issue by narrowing everything down.
Did something changed? I checked the Known Issues and there isn't any new reports of this happening. The odd thing is, my position: running(footer) works perfectly.
Please see my code below for wholeness:
