Description

To return the content file's PDF rendition of the DMS document object, send the request with the ID of the DMS object as objectId.

If the specified objectId does not exist, the call results in the error 404 - Not Found. Further errors are triggered by referencing an object without a content file or with a not convertible content file.

Please note that the rendition is not an exact representation of the original file. Deviations to the original file may arise and are NOT considered as bugs in our software.
