PDFOwl Renderer

PDFOwl PDF Rendering

Properties are available to configure the rendering of PDF documents to images.

The PDFOwl microservice uses a pool of dedicated PDFOwl rendering processes. Each PDFOwl process is started for a single document, and can processing a single query at the same time. For a given document, multiple PDFOwl processes can coexist simultaneously. The PDFOwl microservice recycles PDFOwl processes for a given document, until the pdfowl.client.ttl limit is reached.
