Hi,

with this code i put a xml file into the pdf:

PDF.EmbedRelatedFile('ZUGFeRD-invoice.xml', xml_filename,'text/xml', 'Alternative', 1);

In a validation portal i get following messages:

Embedded files - Desc key fehlt im file specification directory (Das file specification dictionary einer eingebetteten Datei sollte den Desc key enthalten.)

and

Color spaces - Device color space CMYK used

What is wrong?

Ciao

Stefan

Hi Stefan,

the new function (since version 13.12) isn't in the online reference yet - so no further information about it.

I've tried it with Google (why you don't do it by yourself?):

file specification dictionary desc key missing

... and there are many results for you to read ;-)

i think it has to do with the "text/xml".

Try EmbedFile - it's easier ;-)

EmbedFile can not embed the xml-file for ZUGFeRD, this is a special format, see last parameter for EmbedRelatedFile = 1!

Hi,

like i've told:

You've something to do with "text/xml".

Something not having to do with QuickPDF.

Try Google...;-)

EmbedRelatedFile is a function from Quick PDF library and this doesn't work correct!

if you think that's a prob inside QuickPDF then you should post it into the official Debenu-forum for things like this.

This here is only the user-user-forum ;-)
