Images missing on page break with Blink engine's HTML to PDF

Hi SF,

I'm trying to generate a PDF using the blink converter (HTML to PDF from a URL). The content has a dashboard layout widget with images but some are not displaying on page break, they just disspear and don't even display on next page. See the attached sample PDF where record 1234567894 should have an image next to it. I'm also attaching sample code. 

Thanks in advance,

Hi Juan, 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support.  

We have checked the reported issue with Blink rendering engine. We internally make use of chrome headless browser for converting HTML to PDF. But the reported rendering issue occurs with chrome headless browser itself. You can check this behaviour by print preview the document in chrome browser. So, we will report this issue in chromium forum and update you the details on this. Please refer below screenshot for this issue in chrome print preview.

Hi Gowthamraj, happy holidays!

Any updates on this one?. It has been a month and it doesn't seem like we're getting an aswer from Google any time soon so I'm wondering if there's any other workaround you can provide or if we should asume this is an unsupported feature with undetermined date of fix?

Best,

Hi Juan, 
 
Thank you for your patience. 
 
We have tried many solutions from blogs and articles to resolve this, but still we are not able to resolve this issue. And there is no solution provided in that chromium forum to resolve this issue. We have once again raised a update for any solution in that forum to resolve. We will let you know the details of this forum.  
 
However, we will check this reported issue with latest chromium binaries in our end and we will update the details in this forum.

Hi Gowthamraj ,

Did you have a chance to make the new tests regarding this issue?, where can I get the latest binaries from?

Hi Juan, 
 
Thank you for your update. 
 
No. Currently, we are planned to build the chromium source into latest stable version and generating the updated binaries. This updated Blink binaries will be included in any of our upcoming releases. Once we include this binaries and we will check the conversion and update the details in this forum itself.
