Why is billing / making payments so painfully difficult?

Been on again/off again with the pdf services api for the last 18 months, and returned to a new and hopefully finalize project soon.  I "used up" my 500 monthly credits although I extracted many fewer docs.  I guesstimate 150, 2-page docs. I've looked around for 30 minutes and there is either a 1) free section or 2) contact sales for  enterprise, but no place for "retail" sales. Isn't there a section which takes credit cards?  I previously recall doing this directly and through amazon marketplace which has subsequently been cancelled. Please advise as Adobe is my first choice for around 1,000-10,000 docs month initially, a relatively small amount, I know. Thanks in advance.

Greater protection for pdf files when downloading is disabled

Hi, I  watched a presentation by Raymond Camden that mentioned protecting your PDFs from downloading which I know how to do within the API embed code, He went on to describe a way of protecting the links in the code to the PDF by creating indirect links to the pdf (or something like that ) I will be putting the content on A Joomla Accessd control site so you would need to be registered just to access the pdf, But this would not prevent a determined person from downloading the content.  Could you point me in the direction of a tutorial on protecting your PDFs from downloading but still being accessible to the API?  Apologies  for the confusing question  I just trying  to better understand what he said and if I could implement  something similar

InDesign Documents as templates for PDF Services Document Generation

Description - Allow the use of InDesign documents as templates for the PDF Services Document Generation Module.Why is this feature important to you - We require a system that can handle document generation to provide custom on-brand but templated documents to 1000+ stores. Unfortunately, Office documents will not be sufficient. Since we already use Workfront and InDesign quite heavily it would be nice to keep the users in one system.How would you like the feature to work - It would be great to allow Workfront to be used as a front end to make requests for frequently used document designs. The requestor could fill out a custom form and then get either an InDesign document or a PDF file with the blanks/tokens filled in via Workfront Fusion and the PDF Services Document Generation Module.Current Behavior - The PDF Services module does not allow InDesign documents.

Document Services API Node JS - Socket Hang up

Hi, I've created a Node JS solution using the document services API which converts ~15 files to PDF, then combines them to a single PDF. Almost every time i run it, one of the PDF conversion or combining operations fails with 'ServiceApiError: request timed out, 10 seconds expired' and 'Unexpected Error, request could not be completed Error: socket hang up'. Due to how common this error is, the solution is currently unusable. I saw another post on here mentioning a similar error and it was left that it was probably a connectivity issue. I do not beleive this is the case though. The Node JS app is running on a server in a corportate data centre and we do not have connection problems. I also want to mention that the error is not occuring on a specific file conversion or combine. It changes each run. I've also tried to throttle it to reduce any potential connectivity issues by running all of the operations synchronously (1 by 1), rather than all at the same time.

PDF Extract Service API fails with Error Code 400 BAD_PDF_FILE_TYPE

Hello, I am creating a workflow in n8n.io to automatically convert PDFs using the Extract Service API.My problem is that no matter which pdf document I upload I always get the following error message from the API server:  [ { "body":{ "error":{ "code":"BAD_PDF_FILE_TYPE", "message":"BAD_PDF - Unable to extract content.: The input file is not a PDF file", "status":400 }, "status":"failed" }, "headers":{ "server":"openresty", "date":"Sat, 31 Dec 2022 11:23:41 GMT", "content-type":"application/json;charset=UTF-8", "content-length":"152", "connection":"close", "x-request-id":"OqxZOhbXq4jkY7HcTsfK2QxftFbaE4fw" }, "statusCode":200, "statusMessage":"OK" } ]  When I send the API call "Get asset metadata" I get the following response: [ { "body":{ "entity":"02A1570D63AF3AED0A495FA9@techacct.adobe.com", "type":"application/pdf", "size":20842 }, "headers":{ "server":"openresty", "date":"Sat, 31 Dec 2022 11:28:02 GMT", "content-type":"application/json;charset=UTF-8", "cont

Embed API - Fetching JWT License Issue

I have set up credentials and correct domains for the Embed API. When I attempt to load a PDF I get: Access to fetch at 'https://viewlicense.adobe.io/viewsdklicense/jwt' from origin *** has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled. I tried with the pdf formatted as both a blob and a base64 string. The pdf flashes up and then disappears and I get the ubove error in dev tools. The origin for the request matches entered domain entered into the adobe console (other than the 'https://' which cannot be added) I have also tried with entering wildcard subdomain, as well as just root domain, in the console, and my credential string is correct. Please advise any ideas on resolution. Thanks.

Annotation selector is not valid for given {id}

Hi, I've encountered this error when using annotationManager.addAnnotations(annotations); It is really difficult to debug because it works fine on a PDF, until you add a certain annotation and then it stops working. From my best guess It seems to happen when the quadPoints contain more than 20+ items.I will paste my full source code below.Please advise urgently.Kind regards<script> var document_data = [{ "@context": [ "https://www.w3.org/ns/anno.jsonld", "https://comments.acrobat.com/ns/anno.jsonld" ], "id": "4ababa2a-2de5-8e18-b0h9-c85939ab8a4", "type": "Annotation", "motivation": "commenting", "bodyValue": "hi", "target": { "source": "6d07d124-ac85-43b3-a867-36930f502ac6", "selector": { "node": { "index": 0 }, "opacity": 0.4, "subtype": "note", "boundingBox": [ 578, 825, 595, 842 ], "strokeColor": "#fccb00", "type": "AdobeAnnoSelector" } },
