It is recommended that you implement error handling to catch errors the API may return. Effective error handling is vital as it ensures application stability and provides clearer diagnostics. See the example code below for guidance on implementing error handling, and refer to this list of status codes for more information.

try {
    // call the API 
}
catch(Pdfcrowd.Error why) {
    // print the error
    System.err.println("Pdfcrowd Error: " + why);

    // print the error code
    System.err.println("Pdfcrowd Error Code: " + why.getCode());

    // print the error message
    System.err.println("Pdfcrowd Error Message: " + why.getMessage());
}
