what to do if you get "error rendering macro 'imagemap' : null

[Ronald de Vries]

The imagemap plugin is giving us this error when we export to PDF. Is there a way to circumvent this?

We're using a central attachement page which has the images on it (at same level as Home in the space) and then linking to an image on that page from a page that is underneath Home somewhere.

This works fine in the browser, but has problems when exporting.

Anyone encountered this and found a workaround or do we need to submit an issue with the developer for review?

Hello,

This is still an issue with current version of the plugin - 1.10.

The information bellow should be able to help the author fix this bug:

HTML and PDF exports do not work and throw NullPointerException.

The problem is in ImageMapPlugin.java file at line 88.

Here are some details from server log:

-- referer: http://127.0.0.1:8080/spaces/exportspacehtml.action?key=space | url: /spaces/doexportspace.action | userName: administrator | action: doexportspace
java.lang.NullPointerException

@Sanet Minnie

The behavior is indeed as you describe it in your last post.

Hi, can you confirm that the following is true for you too?

The imagemaps PDF when you export just a single page using Tools>Export to PDF, but not when you export the whole manual from Advanced>PDF Export.

We (Orion Health, NZ) have the same problem. Did you find a solution yet?
