Hello,

I just downloaded and installed prince-9.0r5-macosx using the included install.sh script. When I attempt to convert a 67M .html document to a pdf using the following line, I get a seg fault:11. No further details are outputted. This is on OS X 10.9.4, 1.3 Intel Core i5, 4GB.

I'm trying to evaluate your product to be used for our production environment, but cannot get passed this error.

Any advice is helpful.

$ time prince -v 213661.html -o prince/213661.pdf
prince: Loading document...
prince: loading HTML5 input: 213661.html
prince: loading document: 213661.html
Segmentation fault: 11

$ du -sh 213661.html
67M 213661.html

What is the last log output if you re-run with --debug enabled?

Does it work as expected on smaller documents?

Below is debug output

Very interesting. Would you be able to email me (mikeday@yeslogic.com) a document that causes the problem? Or make it available in some other way, if it is too big to email?

I don't know if I can send the document because it contains client data. Can you generate a large 67-68M HTML file and run prince against that?

Yes, however then it doesn't fail.

Perhaps you could anonymise the document by replacing the text with "x"? The actual text should not matter, just the structure of the elements and attributes.

I can also send you a script or XSLT transform that can blank out the text, if you like.
