Created attachment 141651 [details] Input HTML file I am using the LibreOffice CLI to export various import formats as PNG thumbnails. I have noticed inconsistent behaviour depending on the exact filter specified, which I noticed because the 6.0.1.1 version is not working using the same defaults as 5.3.5.2. I have tried running the following: soffice --headless --convert-to png --outdir /tmp Tessella.htm on both 5.3.5.2 and 6.0.1.1 (on CentOS7), and whilst this completes and generates a believable png on 5.3, it fails with the following error on 6.0: Error: Please verify input parameters... (SfxBaseModel::impl_store <file:///tmp//Tessella.png> failed: 0xc10) Both versions defaulted to using the "writer_web_png_Export" filter. For both versions, I then tried: soffice --headless --convert-to png:$FILTER --outdir /tmp $INPUTFILE.htm for the following filters: PNG___Portable_Network_graphic (1) calc_png_Export (2) draw_png_Export (3) impress_png_Export (4) writer_png_Export (5) with the following behaviours: (1) both versions give: Error: Please verify input parameters... (SfxBaseModel::impl_store <file:///tmp//Tessella.png> failed: 0x81a) (2) Works on both (3) both versions give: Error: Please verify input parameters... (SfxBaseModel::impl_store <file:///tmp//Tessella.png> failed: 0xc10) (4) both versions give: Error: Please verify input parameters... (SfxBaseModel::impl_store <file:///tmp//Tessella.png> failed: 0xc10) (5) Works on both It's not clear to me that draw and impress should fail where calc and writer both work (although if this is expected behaviour that's fine), but clearly it's problematic for me that writer_web seems to have broken between 5.3 and 6.0. I have attached the htm that I am using, and the png that gets exported (it appears to be the exact same file that is generated by each of the filters that work).

Dear Jack O'Sullivan, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Re-tested against 7.0.6.2, behavior seems to still be as described. Default --convert-to png does not work. For each specified filter, the same pass or fail as described in the original ticket is still occurring.
Here the coding stuff would be trusted and that would help lots of people to fix the bugs online. I hope after getting the information we are able to improve our knowledge and learn to code as well. Tanks and continue to share https://australianwritings.net/buy-assignments-online/ further related material here that would be wise.
Still appears to be broken in 7.2.7.2, but all PNG filters seem to be broken now.
It should be possible to bibisect this, I overlooked it before. That said, as part of a Google Summer of Code project, our own PNG writing code is being replaced by the libpng library: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/136008 Might be interesting to re-test with a daily build after that patch is merged.
Thanks for the update, this isn't critical for me (as you can probably tell from the infrequent updates) but it would be nice to have a fix, hence me keeping it open. Checking a daily build sounds a bit more involved than I generally have time for, but happy to check back in after the SoC stuff makes it into a release build.
Confirming this still happens using soffice --headless --convert-to png --outdir /tmp Tessella.htm in Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: e24a3a3c339d7a175ebfeef31a280becda9d5950 CPU threads: 1; OS: Linux 6.3; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
