I am receiving a timeout generating a PDF, what can I do?

To prevent timeout when exporting large reports in PDF format, please follow these steps:

• Go to Admin panel -> Settings -> Configuration -> General -> Jobs

• Reduce the limit of extracted strings included in the generated PDF by editing the following setting:

  • REPORT_FORMAT_STRINGS_LIMIT - Only include this amount of extracted strings into HTML/PDF report

• You can limit the extracted strings to only include interesting ones by changing the following field:

  • REPORT_FORMAT_STRINGS_MODE - What strings to include into HTML/PDF report
  • All - include all strings
  • Prefer interesting - include interesting strings first, and than other strings till limit is reached
  • Interesting - include only interesting strings
