So, I’m trying to use lowriter to convert some files from doc/docx to pdf inside my program. When I run it like a sub process I get ‘Application Error’ like below
>>rest = subprocess.getoutput('lowriter --convert-to pdf --outdir ./data/temp_convert "<FILE_PATH>/file.docx"')
>>rest
'Application Error'
But when I run it directly form the terminal everything works fine:
$ lowriter --convert-to pdf --outdir ./data/temp_convert "<FILE_PATH>/file.docx"
convert <FILE_PATH>/file.docx -> ./data/temp_convert/file.pdf using filter : writer_pdf_Export
Any idea what might be causing this?
Ps. This is an old script that worked with libreoffice 6.0 but does not with 7.0
