Sometimes I'm getting this error The file is not a valid PDF document. when trying to generate and download a PDF file, this has happened on several ocasions and sometimes if 2 users are trying to generate a pdf (different files) one gets the error and the other gets the PDF without any issues. 


Is this a known error or is there any solution that I'm might not be seeing?

That error usually means the PDF is empty. Note sure what could cause this.

In this case the assign before has the URL and if I check the URL in the browser I get the page that should be in the PDF.
