Convert HTML to Word Document with reference URL issue with Aspose.Words RESTful API

Aspose.Words Cloud Product Family

Hi,

HTML to word conversions are failing since last 2 days using Aspose.Words.cloud API.
The conversion fails if the HTML has reference to any URL. I am attaching a sample_html.zip (961 Bytes)
.
The conversion works fine if we remove the URL reference.

Could you please look into this on priority as it is impacting our Live product.

Anticipating a prompt response from your end.

Hi Team,

We checked the api and the issue is not resolved. We have embedded images in our html (src=“data:image/jpg”) which are not working now. when we remove them from the html the conversion starts working. This was working all good earlier.

Please look into it as quickly as possible as live users are still affected and conversions are failing.

The Respose received from api : {
“Message”: “Error while loading file ‘70eaf7d5-b706-4314-a224-eb35223883aa.html’ from storage: The document appears to be corrupted and cannot be loaded.”
}

PFA the sample html for the failed report.

Hi Team,
​
​Just to add more clarity, an issue related to urls was introduced on 13th November 2018 in Aspose.Words cloud resulting in failure of html to word conversion.

  1. HREF urls not working (​href=“https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Catamaran|Open+Sans|Calibri:400,700,400italic,700italic|Tahoma|Lato”]
  2. Image tags with urls not working (<img src = “https://www.google.co.in/images/branding/googlelogo/1x/googlelogo_color_272x92dp.png”)
  3. Image tags with data uri not working (<img src="data:image/jpg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAAEAYABgAAD//gAfTEVBRCBUZWNobm9sb2dpZXMgSW5jLiBWMS4wMQD/2wCEA…truncated”>)

Issues 1 and 2 have been fixed by you and released into production today. However, issue 3 has not been fixed and is still a live issue.

All these issues were introduced on 13th November and are still affecting our live customers.

Could you please get your team to investigate the root cause of the second issue, provide a fix and release to production as soon as possible. Could you also please give us frequent updates on the investigation and resolution to this issue as we would need to provide updates to our business and affected customers.
