Hi
I'm having trouble running verypdf within a scheduled task on one of our servers.
It is server 2008r2 x64, the scheduled task (a powershell script) is running as local system which then executes htmltools.
Here's the error I get:

Is there any way to make this work for the local system account?
Many Thanks
===========================================
Hi,
"local system account" is not an interactive user account, it has some limitations, we suggest you may run the conversion inside Administrator user account to instead of "local system account", then you will get it work properly.
Thank you!
