PDF Generation for Coldfusion 11

[PegWan]

We just recently installed Coldfusion 11 enterprise. The code for generating pdf files worked before but did not work on the Coldfusion 11 enterprise platform. The code is like this:

<cfcontent type="application/pdf" />

<cfheader name="Content-disposition" value="attachment;filename=Report.pdf">

        <cfdocument format="pdf">

             <cfdocumentsection>

                  <cfinclude template="facultyReports.cfm">

             </cfdocumentsection>

        </cfdocument>

I got the following error:

coldfusion.document.DocumentProcessor$TimeOutException at coldfusion.document.DocumentProcessor.processContent(DocumentProcessor.java:277)

I also tried to use the new tag <cfhtmltopdf>, like this:

<cfhtmltopdf>

     This is a test.

</cfhtmltopdf>

The server/page was just hanging there.

Any insights are greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

There might be a problem during the inclusion of facultyReports.cfm, as the error message indicates. As a test, store the following file, containing one line of text, in the current directory

pdfIncludeTest.cfm

Content of test file

Then replace <cfinclude template="facultyReports.cfm">  with <cfinclude template="pdfIncludeTest.cfm">

Did you every find anything? I have a brand new CF11 install, fully patched and out of the box i can't generate PDFS using simple test case:

<cfdocument format="PDF">this is a test</cfdocument>

It just hangs until timeout, nothing in any logs.

Also (i think its related) i can't add fonts through the CF Administrator, just hangs as well.
