Conversion Style Issues

Hi,

We're looking to use pdfcrowd for our PDF generation. I've been testing with the following URL:
https://reports.carproof.com/main?id=qFUIMbkKWSWJ%2fIsoSaIheWeiWdqdjuK%2f

It generates the PDF but I get two red blobs at the top and bottom of the file. I've tried the usePrintMedia and enableBackgrounds settings and they didn't help. I couldn't see anything within the api documentation that would help. Otherwise it is a copy and paste of the example on the .NET page (https://pdfcrowd.com/api/html-to-pdf-dotnet/)

Thanks
John

Hello John,

We looked into this issue but could not find out why the page is converted incorrectly. We noticed that the page contains many errors which could confuse our HTML parser. You can try to submit the page to the W3C validator service and fix the reported errors and see if it helps with the issue.
