(because) invalid PDF: startxref not found
Error: Invalid PDF: startxref not found

I am getting this error when I change the pdfutils: header. I am using chromepdf. I could not replicate this in playground. I am using 4.2 version of jsreport. Have you come across this error before? What might cause this error?

It seems that adding a completely new header or footer is accepted, but I’m not convinced that's the appropriate solution. Could you provide some insight into the circumstances under which this error typically occurs in JsReport?

The footer was in html recipe and the index file was in chrome-pdf recipe. Changing the footer to chrome-pdf solved it.
