Can we use this gem on Heroku? about libreconv

[17100262]

Libreconv gem does not create temp file on heroku. It gives me following error
No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen - /app/tmp/d20180119-4-1n9jguq/Employee_Promotion.pdf

Can anyone help me with this?

Hi,

I guess Heroku does not put the soffice binary in the PATH. If you know the path to the soffice binary on Heroku you can specify it when doing the conversion:

Libreconv.convert('document.docx', '/Users/ricn/pdf_documents', '/path/to/soffice')
