All,

 

Is anyone using the conversion from doc/docx to pdf functionality within eprints?

 

Looking at the change logs:

Feature was added in 3.1: https://wiki.eprints.org/w/New_Features_in_EPrints_3.1

"There's a convert plugin to turn .doc into .pdf, which is available from the upload screen convert option."

and was clearly still in 3.3: https://wiki.eprints.org/w/New_Features_in_EPrints_3.3

"Antiword is no longer used for indexing so isn't required (although still used for the doc → pdf 'toy' converter)"

 

The function appears in our setup, but currently doesn’t work.

Has anyone got this to work, or a workaround?

 

Regards,

Adam
